NUCL 3000 - Nuclear Principles in Engineering and Science

Nuclear principles in engineering and science course will provide the students with fundamental understanding of basic principles covering the modern theory of the atomic and nucleus structure, quantum description of nuclear phenomena of interest in nuclear engineering, radiation types and interactions with matter, radioactive decay. Each of the section will address the application of learned principles thus connecting the concepts in physics, quantum mechanics, radiation transport, mathematics, computational science and engineering, chemistry, environmental engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, biology and bioengineering, nuclear medicine and health physics. Web based experiential interactive tools are available.
