How do they match: Nuclear Engineers

  • Conduct research on nuclear engineering projects or apply principles and theory of nuclear science to problems concerned with release, control, and use of nuclear energy and nuclear waste disposal.

  • Conduct environmental studies on topics such as nuclear power generation, nuclear waste disposal, or nuclear weapon deployment.
  • Consult with other scientists to determine parameters of experimentation or suitability of analytical models.
  • Design fuel cycle models or processes to reduce the quantity of radioactive waste generated from nuclear activities.
  • Keep abreast of developments and changes in the nuclear field by reading technical journals or by independent study and research.
