With increased electrification and more strict environmental goals, we need more energy. As pollution from petroleum and coal fuels is corrupting our environment it is our responsibility to brighten our future. This journey will take a lot of effort and heroes in our society to explore and learn about alternative routes to generate energy. Nuclear power is a continuous effort to generate energy safely and creating innovative solutions to deal with the waste.
Course content:
Basic concepts of nuclear physics
Nuclear power generation
Nuclear safety
Nuclear systems in the future
Laboratory session – Measuring ionizing radiation
Project work
As a bonus to what you will learn during the course, you will also get to experience the Swedish culture – everything from eating fermented fish ("surströmming") to spending time in the middle of the ancient Swedish forest and taking a swim in a lake.
So if you are curious about nuclear power and also want to get to know Swedish culture - APPLY!
Together we can power up the world!
