 Teachers belonging to the Nuclear Engineering Area are traditionally involved in research and teaching activities related to peaceful applications of nuclear energy, with main emphasis on plant design and safety, radiation measurements and reactor physics. Research activities are funded by university and governmental bodies, as well as by the industry and the European Community. The Nuclear Engineering group is continuously involved in researches carried out in cooperation with prestigious international organisations, thus preserving and updating its knowledge and capabilities in the nuclear field, even in a period of nuclear moratoria in the Country. Recently, the tradition of studies in nuclear safety allowed transferring the related know-how also in the broader field of industrial safety, developing teaching and research activities that resulted in new job opportunities for young graduated engineers. |
