Is nuclear engineering same as chemical engineering?

Nuclear engineering is a specialization of chemical engineering. Most nuclear engineering is concerned with the basic physical and chemical processes studied by a chemical engineer.

Can a chemical engineer be a nuclear engineer?

Generally, you can work as a nuclear engineer with a chemical engineering degree, as I did. Sometimes though, particular companies may prefer to hire people with nuclear engineering background.

Can an electrical engineer work as a nuclear engineer?

They develop nuclear equipment, as well as design equipment that would be used with radiation shielding or reactor cores plus associated instrumentation. A nuclear engineer works alongside electrical engineers and mechanical engineers and incorporate their designs into his or her own design.

Can a chemical engineer do masters in nuclear engineering?

Master in nuclear for chemical engineer? Absolutely yes. Actually nuclear is one of the fields that chemical engineers pursue for graduate study. Chemical engineering programs (everywhere in the world) give the necessary knowledge, skills, and training for study in nuclear engineering.

What are the best schools for Nuclear Engineering?

Here are the best nuclear engineering schools. University of Michigan–Ann Arbor. Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Texas A&M University–College Station. North Carolina State University. University of California–Berkeley. University of Illinois–Urbana-Champaign. University of Wisconsin–Madison.

What are facts about nuclear engineering?

Nuclear engineering is based on nuclear physics and deals with sub atomic physics. It covers the interaction and maintenance of complex systems which pertain to nuclear energy. Nuclear engineering also covers study of nuclear medicines.

What is the difference between chemistry and chemical engineering?

The difference between industrial chemistry and chemical engineering is that industrial chemistry applies chemical and physical processes to convert raw materials into important products whereas chemical engineering is a branch of engineering that designs the processes to produce, transform and transport materials.
