EMSNE Certification
Link: EMSNE Certification – European Nuclear Education Network (enen.eu)
Deadline will be announced soon.
The European Master of Science in Nuclear Engineering (EMSNE) is a Certificate delivered by the European Nuclear Education Network Association, with the endorsement of all its members, in order to certify the highest quality standards of Nuclear Engineering Education and the European dimension pursued achieved by the EMSNE laureate.
The objectives of the European Master of Science in Nuclear Engineering framework are:
- to certify and secure the highest stardarts of Quality in the Nuclear Education in Europe combining the joint state-of-the-art know-how of the European universities,
- to ensure the highest Quality of Training provided to European Nuclear students by full use of the unique nuclear research and industrial facilities throughout Europe, towards analytic, resourceful and inventive nuclear engineering,
- to encourage and develop a common Nuclear Safety Culture throughout Europe,
- to foster the international exchanges to create a network of nuclear engineers and scientists of different nationalities, aiming to promote the contact and collaboration between students from several countries with different educational views, different nuclear reactor technologies, and different nuclear policies.
Check out if you comply with the requirements at this link: https://enen.eu/index.php/emsne-certification/ and start preparing your application now. If you are eligible you will be invited to an international conference to receive your certificate!
