With nuclear power back on the agenda in the UK, it could be a good time to study an MSc in a nuclear energy related subject. The University of Manchester has announced plans to establish a Centre for Nuclear Energy Technology that will help to equip people with the skills required to work in the global nuclear power industry. As well as focusing on science and engineering, it will also cover society and sustainability issues.

While I am happy for the University of Manchester to promote itself, it should be noted that the University of Birmingham has run its MSc in Physics and Technology of Nuclear Reactors since 1956 - indeed it is the ONLY UK university to have done so over such a long continuous period with a defined purpose of training people for the nuclear power industry.
