The demands of Net Zero and energy security have spurred significant interest and investment in nuclear energy. One of the greatest challenges to realising a nuclear future is a shortage of people trained in nuclear technology. To help address this skills gap, the University of Cambridge founded a one year, full-time #postgraduate master’s course in nuclear energy, the Nuclear Energy MPhil. The course has nuclear technology at its core, but recognises the importance of understanding wider policy issues. It also features a flexible curriculum that allows students to tailor their education to their personal interests. Whatever path you wish to follow, our tailor-made teaching, combined with our academic and industrial network, makes our course the perfect stepping-stone into the world of #NuclearTechnology.
If you have a good 2.1 in engineering, physics or other science subject and are interested in clean and abundant energy, consider applying. Several funding opportunities are available. Please visit postgraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/courses/directory/egegmpmne to apply, or contact nuclear-mphil-enquiries@eng.cam.ac.uk with any queries.
