About

Nuclear engineering is a branch of engineering which includes topics and theories from both electrical engineering and chemical engineering.  It deals with combing and breaking down of nuclei. The energy released from this is used to convert water to steam, which is later used to run a turbine. This manages to generate electricity. Nuclear engineering deals with the study of thermodynamics, radiation, nuclear safety and fuel and so on.

Nuclear Engineers design or develop nuclear equipment, such as reactor cores, radiation shielding, and associated instrumentation.They direct operating or maintenance activities of operational nuclear power plants to ensure that they meet safety standards and monitor nuclear facility operations to identify any design,construction or operational practices that violate safety regulations and laws.
