BNEN: Belgian Nuclear higher Education Network
In collaboration with the major Belgian universities, SCK•CEN organises a one-year programme (60 ECTS) on nuclear engineering. The objective of this master is to offer present and future professionals and researchers a solid background in the different disciplines of nuclear engineering.
The complete programme is taught in English. Its high modularity allows for optimal time management for teachers and students. It facilitates individual participation in selected courses e.g. advanced courses in the context of continuous professional development. It also facilitates foreign students to participate in blocs of courses.
