核工程理学学士

核工程师站在迅速发展的领域的最前沿，这些领域包括为我们的星球供电的更好，更安全的方法。他们正在研究反应堆系统的设计，核不扩散，与材料的辐射相互作用以及减少和控制放射性废物。新墨西哥大学的核工程本科课程为学生提供了数学，物理，化学和工程基础知识方面的广泛培训，随后是涉及辐射与物质相互作用，辐射传输，辐射检测和防护，核反应堆的专业课程理论与安全，热工液压和核系统设计。学生还选择技术选修课，以使他们能够深入探索核工程感兴趣的领域。在令人兴奋的研究领域中，UNM核工程教授正在研究在严重事故情况下核反应堆冷却系统会
Nuclear engineers are on the forefront of rapidly developing areas that include better, safer ways to power our planet. They’re working on reactor system designs, nuclear non-proliferation, radiation interaction with materials, and reducing and controlling radioactive waste. The Nuclear Engineering undergraduate program at the University of New Mexico gives the student broad training in the fundamentals of mathematics, physics, chemistry and engineering, followed by professional specialty course work involving radiation interaction with matter, radiation transport, radiation detection and protection, nuclear reactor theory and safety, thermalhydraulics and nuclear systems design. Students also select technical electives that allow them to explore in-depth areas of interest in nuclear engineering.<br><br>Among the exciting research areas, UNM nuclear engineering professors are studying what happens to the cooling system of a nuclear reactor under severe accident conditions. Collaborations with national laboratories focus on a variety of areas, including nuclear criticality safety, radiation transport, reactor theory, space nuclear power, and probabilistic risk assessment.
