Background

The current scenario of Indian civil nuclear energy involves accelerated growth of nuclear power in the next 20 years. This fact implies creation of massive amount of “nuclear infrastructure” in a very short time. Safety and health aspects are crucial from a social point-of-view and they form the theme of this one-day workshop. Nuclear engineering education and training is also a vital component of this exercise and universities play a very important role in this area. A panel discussion on emerging nuclear engineering programs in Indian universities is slated in the afternoon session.
