Minor in Nuclear Engineering

Winter Weather Campus Update

Out of an abundance of caution, Kennesaw State University will move to modified operations on Tuesday, January 21. All in-person classes will convert to remote instruction protocols determined by each instructor. Students should refer to course syllabi or D2L for details on how learning will continue during Modified Operations. All online classes will continue as scheduled. All in-person activities are cancelled. Visit kennesaw.edu/emergency for more information.

The minor in Nuclear Engineering is designed to respond to the critical needs of the nuclear industry for a technical workforce. The Nuclear Engineering minor educates participating students in the Fundamentals of Nuclear Engineering, Nuclear Energy Conversion, Reactor Operation, and Radiation Detection and Protection. Graduates can seek career opportunities in the nuclear industry or pursue a graduate degree in Nuclear Engineering. The minor also provides a competitive edge for those who pursue opportunities outside the nuclear industry, because employers typically recognize the mission-critical nature of the nuclear industry and value the discipline that accompanies this particular branch of engineering.
