The Nuclear AMRC and AMRC Training Centre have together created the new Nuclear Scientist and Nuclear Engineer Degree Apprenticeship to develop graduate professionals with the skills to work across the UK’s current and future civil nuclear programmes.
Employers to attend this special event to find out more about the apprenticeship, and how you can use the programme to develop new talent in your company.
As well as introducing the scope and requirements of the course, the half-day event will include presentations from a range of nuclear industry representatives on the importance of the new degree apprenticeship and how it aligns with plans to tackle the skills shortage across the sector.
The event also provides an opportunity to see the industry-leading training facilities available at the AMRC Training Centre, close to the Nuclear AMRC on South Yorkshire’s Advanced Manufacturing Park.
The Nuclear Scientist and Nuclear Engineer Degree Apprenticeship has been developed with the support of industry partners including UKAEA, Westinghouse, Rolls-Royce, Sellafield and Jacobs. It is designed to provide the engineering and management skills needed to ensure that nuclear systems and equipment can be operated safely and efficiently and in an environmentally sustainable way.
Specialist modules include the principles of nuclear engineering, advanced manufacturing and materials for nuclear applications, and industry codes and standards. Depending on previous experience, the course will take up to five years to complete.
