About Nuclear Engineering, MSc - at Khalifa University

The degree of Master of Science in Nuclear Engineering (M.Sc. in NUCE) is awarded for candidates who successfully complete the taught courses, field trips, and thesis requirements of the program. The program is targeted for students with various backgrounds, such as graduates of Mechanical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Material Science, Mathematics or other pertinent specializations. The program starts with common core courses that cover essential Nuclear Engineering topics. On successful completion of the core courses students can select one of six tracks that covers specialized courses to prepare the students for their project/thesis work and broaden their expertise in specific areas of nuclear technology. In addition to taught courses, students are required to complete a field trip component. In this component the student is required to carry out a series of nuclear reactor experiments to consolidate theory lessons given in class as well as visit selected nuclear facilities to gain an overall appreciation of nuclear energy technology at the front and back end of the fuel cycle as well as during reactor operations. Finally, the candidates work on a M.Sc. thesis in their chosen area. The thesis work may be undertaken in several topics corresponding to the focus areas identified by the relevant supervisors. Alternatively, where applicable and subject to the approval Nuclear Engineering Department, students may propose thesis topics of their own or work on solving problems of their respective sponsoring organizations.
