The nuclear engineering minor program will provide students with a complementary understanding of nuclear engineering principles that will introduce them to concepts of nuclear reactor theory, isotope detection, reactor analysis, and an approach to nuclear engineering experiments. The minor is ideal for those wanting to further expand their knowledge in a complex discipline, or for those that seek a basic understanding of nuclear engineering principles for work within industry.
