nuclear engineering
Nuclear engineering is the branch of engineering deals with the utilization of the fission as well as fusion of nuclear nuclei or the use of other sub-nuclear material science, in light of the standards of nuclear material science. Nuclear fission incorporates the communication and maintenance of frameworks like Nuclear power plants, Nuclear reactors or Nuclear weapons. The stream also incorporates the study of medical and different uses of nuclear fuel, radiations, nuclear safety, thermodynamics transport and other related technology.
Nuclear engineers are the professionals who play an important role to make this world a better place to live by implementing the power of atom. They apply their aptitude of science, material science, and engineering to handle social and ecological issues with the help of nuclear energy and radiation in the field of agriculture, power generation, medicine, manufacturing etc.
