Graduate profile and further learning opportunities:

The graduate of second-degree studies in Nuclear Power Technologies receives profound education in the role of nuclear energy in the context of global energy challenges, sustainable development, and the decarbonization of the energy sector. The graduate is familiar with the fundamental and advanced principles of nuclear physics, leading to an understanding of the design and operation aspects of various types of nuclear reactors including their construction, the materials used, operating principles, and safety, including radiological protection and nuclear fuel cycle technologies. This education provides knowledge of the development of prospective 4th Generation reactors and nuclear fusion technology. The graduate understands and analyses the life cycle of machines and energy devices used in nuclear power plant systems, as well as methods for processing, storing, and managing radioactive waste in accordance with applicable regulations and standards. Graduates are prepared to design and control processes present in the nuclear energy sector and related industries, conduct research on energy processing, energy machines and devices. They are able to implement modernization of processes and machinery and introduce new technologies. They are familiar with the principles of energy market operations. Graduates may find employment as specialists in institutions, companies and design offices related to the field of nuclear energy, as well as employees of research institutions and also in the future as operators or management staff in nuclear power plants. The graduate is also prepared to undertake studies at the Doctoral School (PhD studies) and participate in research in the broadly understood field of energy - particularly modern nuclear energy.
