Overview
Key facts:
- Diverse opportunities await graduates of the Department of Nuclear and Radiological Engineering (NRE) because nuclear sciences have and will continue to make major contributions to electricity production, medical diagnostic imaging and therapy, non-destructive testing as well as radiation detection and measurement. The Nuclear and Radiological Sciences program is offered at University of Florida.
- These opportunities will continue to grow as we face more challenges in energy production and medicine. For the last three decades, the nuclear industry has contributed over 20% of our country’s electricity production, and major advances continue to be made in the development of radiation diagnostics and treatment for medical and industrial applications.
