Approaches to Revitalizing Nuclear Science and Engineering Education and Training
Utilize a network with five national and three Idaho universities
Enable increased university participation in research at INL and promote free flow of researchers both ways
University research and education programs aligned with the mission of the INL
Partner with universities and industry to address energy workforce needs
Modernize educational materials
