Bachelor in Nuclear Science and Engineering

The School of Nuclear Science and Engineering (SNSE) was established based on the preponderant disciplines in North China Electric Power University (NCEPU), aiming to implement the national policy about “the medium and long term development plan of nuclear power”. This school is also the core component of the education system with “Big Electric Power” features which is built with an emphasis on subjects related to new type energy.

SNSE was founded in 2007. Having two provincial and ministerial key laboratories (Beijing Key Laboratory of Passive Safety Technology for Nuclear Energy and State Energy Key Laboratory of Nuclear Power Software), SNSE is granted the right to confer doctoral degree in the second-level discipline Nuclear Power and Power Engineering and master degree in the first-level discipline Nuclear Science and Technology. The school possesses the national experimental teaching center for Full-scope Virtual Simulation of Nuclear Power Engineering and the national base for Practical Education of Nuclear Power Engineering. The first level subject “Nuclear Science and Technology” ranked the 9th in the China Discipline Ranking.

Undergraduate programs in SNSE include Nuclear Engineering and Technology and Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety. The Nuclear Engineering and Technology program, which admitted students from 2004, was ranked in 2008 as the third batch of National Characteristic Discipline Development Center and in 2010 as one of the first batch pilot majors of National Outstanding Engineers Plan. In 2012, the program was listed as the demonstration site of major comprehensive reform in the national undergraduate teaching quality and teaching reform project. Based on the in-campus experiments, simulation practice and off-campus internship, the school showed the talent cultivating features of emphasizing on theoretical foundations, practice and professional skills.
