Course Overview
The online certification course will be covering fundamental topics like - the biological impact of radiation, nuclear waste management, and safety issues pertinent to handling nuclear fuels will also be discussed. The Fundamentals of Nuclear Power Generation certification benefits the students by allowing them to learn from the industry experts for a period of twelve weeks that too from the comforts of their house.
The students upon completing the course have their fundamentals built on the concepts of- Thermal reactors, Reactor safety, and security, Biological effects of radiation, Waste management and economics, Nuclear fission, and other topics that are related directly or indirectly to the topic of nuclear power. The online programme introduces the candidates to the principles of nuclear power generation.
After completing the programme the students will become familiarized with different concepts and finally the design reactors of different types. The students will thus become ready to pursue a professional career in the said field after the completion of Fundamentals of Nuclear Power Generation by Swayam.
