Engineering and Radiochemistry for Nuclear Non-proliferation (ERNN) Summer School
The ERNN is an intensive summer school that moves beyond fundamental radiochemistry to focus on its integration with nuclear chemical engineering and advanced technology for nonproliferation applications. The program is designed to complement existing radiochemistry schools by focusing on the applied engineering and technological challenges where radiochemical principles are critical.
Where/When: Oak Ridge National Laboratory, July 27-31, 2026.
Audience: NA-22 Consortium graduate and advanced undergraduate Fellows and Affiliates. Interested non-consortium students may also apply.
Format:
- Lectures
- Labs & Simulations
- Facilities Tours
