Master of Science in Engineering "Diplôme d'Ingénieur"

Nuclear Engineering (B)

Course director

Julie Champion

By following the Nuclear Engineering (B) - Development and Management of Nuclear Facilities  (DEMIN - B) theme (prerequisite: Nuclear Engineering A), our engineering students will develop the necessary skills to design, develop, implement and operate in the constantly evolving nuclear sector, and thus contribute directly to energy and environmental transformation. This theme also aims to train responsible engineers, capable of assessing risks, developing and building solutions and, more generally, establishing strategies to make appropriate decisions while being aware of the many associated issues.

Engineers who follow this theme will be agents of change in future energy and environmental transitions.
