MSc in Nuclear Science & Technology, Nuclear Technology Education Consortium(NTEC)

A new concept in postgraduate-level training for the nuclear sector has been developed by a strong consortium of UK universities and HE institutions.

The breadth and format of the training is designed to meet the UK's projected nuclear skills requirements in decommissioning and clean-up, reactor technology, fusion and nuclear medicine.

The consortium is the Nuclear Technology Education Consortium (NTEC) and comprises the Universities of;

Birmingham, Lancaster, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield, City University, London, HMS Sultan, Imperial College London, UHI Millennium Institute & Westlakes Research Institute.

Together these institutions represent more than 90% of the nuclear postgraduate teaching expertise residing in the UK's universities and research institutes.

The structure and content of the programme, which leads to qualifications up to Master's level in Nuclear Science & Technology, was established following extensive consultations with the UK nuclear sector, including industry, regulators, MoD, NDA, Government Departments and the Cogent Skills Council.

Applicants should have at least a 2:2 degree in a relevant discipline.
