5 Places Where Nuclear Engineering Courses are the best in the United States

The potential of nuclear science in impacting human lives is not unknown to us. From the efficient generation of energy to the development of medicines, there is so much that can happen from the interaction between gamma rays and neutrons. Governments and the scientific community across the globe have acknowledged that the growth of human civilization depends on the advances made in the field of nuclear engineering. Thus, there has been an increased introduction of academic and empirical programs on nuclear engineering in many universities.

The United States of America has been at the forefront of nuclear engineering for a long time. The USA houses numerous universities that have designed degree programs for those interested in nuclear science. In fact, the world’s best universities in nuclear science and engineering can be found here. To name a few, I have listed 5 top universities in nuclear engineering in the country. These universities are ranked among the world’s best and are sure to offer you bright career prospects.

  1. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
    When it comes to science and engineering, MIT holds a distinguished place in academia. It was established in the year 1861 and operates as a private university. It presently has as many as 5 schools: Engineering, Science, Architecture and Planning, Management, and Humanities, Arts and Social Science. To complement classroom education, there are many laboratories associated with it such as the MIT Lincoln Laboratory and Whitehead Institutes. Since its inception, it has taught many now-prominent personalities in society including 97 Nobel Laureates and 80 Marshall Scholars, and has maintained an extensive network of entrepreneurs.

  1. The University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley)
    Founded in the year 1868, UC Berkeley is a prestigious educational institution in the country. It is not only the first member of the celebrated network of the University of California but also one of those with the largest number of degree programs in the country. It comprises a total of 14 colleges which include those of Engineering, Business, Law, Optometry, Journalism, Information, and Natural Resources. Moreover, it has under its aegis an array of research institutes such as the Space Sciences Laboratory. UC Berkeley has been the alma mater of about 110 Nobel Laureates and 19 Academy Awardees.

  1. Texas A&M University
    When it comes to taking up national research projects in the field of science, then Texas A&M University is surely a notable mention. It has collaborated with many high-profile organizations in the country such as the National Institutes of Health and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Moreover, it administers critically acclaimed degree programs through its several colleges such as the College of Science and College of Liberal Arts. Being an institution of prestige, it is unsurprising that it has been home to influential individuals including many Heads of States and Medal of Honor recipients.

  1. Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech)
    Georgia Tech is a public university with a very strong foundation in scientific research. It was founded in the year 1885 and is an esteemed member of the University System of Georgia. Originally, it only offered degree programs in Mechanical Engineering; later it added more courses in engineering and science. Today, it consists of 6 colleges that operate many departments associated with science and technology. So far as its research output is concerned, it has been very highly rated and of national consequence. Its alumni network comprises Nobel laureates, CEOs of many top companies, and politicians.

  1. North Carolina State University (NC State)
    Another highly regarded university in the area of scientific research is NC State. It was established in the year 1887 and is the largest of all Carolina Universities. While there is a good range of courses available in its academic organization, it is most famous for those in life sciences, statistics, and engineering. Within its fold are many colleges such as the College of Engineering, Wilson College of Textiles, and College of Management. There are also special programs such as the Entrepreneurship Initiative and Young and teen Writers’ Workshops. Many Nobel laureates, politicians, and senior executive officers in many multinational companies such as Apple have been its students.
