ORAU STEM Accelerator: Shaping the Future of Nuclear Academic Programs Workshops
ORAU is excited to announce that we will be hosting a series of workshops on Shaping the Future of Nuclear Academic Programs in partnership with the Nuclear Energy Institute, American Nuclear Society, and the Institute for Nuclear Power Operators.
The ORAU STEM Accelerator’s Partnership for Nuclear Energy (PNE) is a priority initiative focused on addressing a critical national need to accelerate and increase STEM credentials in the nuclear energy industry. PNE is leading a collaborative approach with key stakeholders—academia (two- and four-year institutions), private industry, professional organizations, national labs, and government agencies—to develop a set of comprehensive solutions that will drive collective action and ensure a more all-inclusive and sustainable clean energy strategy.
The 90-minute workshops will be held on the following dates and registration is free. They are designed for university department heads and faculty interested in enhancing nuclear science and technology programs through best practices in nuclear career awareness, pipeline management, recruitment, retention, funding opportunities, and resource optimization. Each workshop will have the same content, and a summary report will be issued to all participants following completion of all workshops.
