这门独特的课程旨在发展为学生准备核能课程所需的技能和理解。英国面临的主要挑战之一是，随着人们逐渐摆脱化石燃料，其发电方式将发生变化。政府正在投资建设一套新的核电站，该核电站可以提供英国40％的电力。毕业生迫切需要在这个快速增长的行业工作。该大学在核反应堆物理和相关研究的教学方面拥有超过50年的经验。与核工业之间有着非常紧密的联系，他们从我们的教育计划中大量招募。这些课程隶属于伯明翰核教育与研究中心。本课程将核心物理，数学和计算模块与工程原理和材料结合在一起，使学生掌握工程技能，但掌握基础科学。该课程是冶金
This unique course is designed to develop the skills and understanding required to prepare students for the Nuclear Sector. One of the major challenges the UK faces is reshaping how it generates electricity as there is a move away from fossil fuels. The Government are investing in the construction of a suite of new nuclear power stations which could deliver up to 40% of the UK's electricity. There is a significant demand for graduates to work in this rapidly growing sector. The University has over 50 years' of experience in teaching the physics of nuclear reactors and associated research. There are very strong links with the nuclear industry who recruit strongly from our educational programmes. These courses are affiliated with the Birmingham Centre for Nuclear Education and Research. The present course combines modules in core physics, mathematics and computing together with engineering principles and materials, so that students possess engineering skills but have a grasp of the fundamental science. The course is a joint programme between the School of Metallurgy and Materials and the School of Physics and Astronomy, with additional courses being delivered by Engineering Schools. Optional foundation year
