The degree of Master of Science in Nuclear Engineering (MSc in NUCE) is awarded by Khalifa University of Science and Technology for successfully completing the requirements of a program of study which includes taught courses as well as thesis. The thesis is an independent investigation of specialized areas within the general field of Nuclear Engineering and associated disciplines. The MSc in NUCE gives candidates the opportunity to deepen their knowledge in the broad field of NUCE and contribute to the process of discovery and knowledge creation through the conduct of original research. Candidates for this degree are taught and supervised by experienced faculty and are expected to demonstrate initiative in their approach and innovation in their work. In addition to successfully completing the taught course component of the program, candidates prepare and present a thesis on their chosen area. Research may be undertaken in several topics corresponding to the areas of focus identified by the University. -

The program is aimed at training specialists with knowledge and skills in the study of physics of high temperatures. Students study plasma and solid state physics, technical and magnetic gas dynamics, kinetics, ionizing radiation, thermophysical problems of ecology, and the use of lasers. Masters who have studied in the specialty "Nuclear Energy and Thermal Physics" have the opportunity to get a job in research institutes, laboratories, higher educational institutions, at power plants of all kinds. -

The Nuclear System Safety Engineering Course curriculum is designed to equip human resources with the motivation and leadership skills required to ensure nuclear safety by system safety engineering. Based on the diverse disciplines, theoretical and practical studies on nuclear safety are made to enhance the system safety approach. Practical courses are also offered to students to help develop skills to communicate with non-experts and ordinary citizens. -
