Nuclear Nonproliferation Science and Policy (Certificate)
Apply NowThe objective of the program is to educate students about nuclear nonproliferation, safeguards, and security from both the global and the technical perspectives. Students will be exposed to state-of-the-art techniques and will develop an understanding of the technical and policy challenges to maintain and support a robust nuclear nonproliferation regime. This process will be supported by assignments designed to reinforce understanding of the individual subject areas covered, class projects which cover key areas such as proliferation case studies and physical security simulations, as well as interactions with subject matter experts in nuclear nonproliferation technology and policy.
