It is strongly recommended that you do not take any of the nuclear engineering or electronics systems engineering area of study courses unless your math skills (calculus 1 or higher) are reasonably current.
The Bachelor of Science (BS) degree with an area of study in Nuclear Energy Engineering Technology emphasizes the practical application of engineering principles as they impact nuclear power generation. The 120-credit program is designed to provide students with the skills necessary to perform competently in reactor operations, quality assurance, instrumentation and control technology and other related areas. Additionally, the BS degree with an area of study in Nuclear Energy Engineering Technology addresses career pathways in the engineering function and thus supports the ability to obtain a professional engineering license.
The Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Nuclear Energy Engineering Technology is accredited by the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission(s) of ABET, https://abet.org, under the General Criteria and the Nuclear Engineering Technology and Similarly Named Programs Program Criteria.
Have you earned acquired college-level technical expertise on the job? If so, it may be worth college credit. The University also offers a variety of other ways to earn credit, including transferring previous college credits, all designed around the needs of adult learners, like you.
Note: Laboratories are considered to be part of the course work and/or prior experiential learning. Laboratory requirements of the degree are assigned zero credits.
How Students Earn Credit in the Area of Study: Most students have earned credit from the Navy Basic Nuclear Power School, which covers more than half of the area of study. Credit may also be earned by advanced Navy training. Prior Learning Assessment (PLA), NRC license, NRRPT certification, certification from a nuclear utility INPO accredited program or ACE-reviewed company training
Students are encouraged to schedule and complete planning sessions with academic advisors. Academic advisors discuss and elaborate on recommended course sequence and prerequisites in these advising sessions.
The advised sequence of courses (suggested prerequisite requirements) is as follows:
* Reactor and Plant Systems Courses:
** Radiation Effects Courses:
The program educational objectives (PEOs) are broad statements describing the career and professional accomplishments that the Nuclear Energy Engineering Technology program is preparing graduates to achieve. The BS degree with an area of study in Nuclear Energy Engineering Technology strives to produce qualified and competent applied technology engineering professionals who can immediately make substantial contributions to their employers.
The PEOs are to:
