Nuclear and Environmental Sciences

Would you like to develop solutions for the safe handling of radioactivity in energy production, medicine, and the construction industry? You will gain specialized expertise through hands-on experience in the field, in the laboratory, and through nuclear emergency preparedness exercises. Norway needs candidates with knowledge in nuclear sciences (the study of atomic nuclei, radiation, and radioactivity). This master’s program will provide you with solid skills required for a career both nationally and internationally where nuclear expertise is essential. You will learn about the effects and consequences of radioactivity in the environment and gain insight into radioactive contamination alongside other types of pollution in nature. In addition, you will develop an understanding of radiation protection principles and how Norway’s nuclear emergency preparedness system operates. There is a growing focus on nuclear power as an energy source, while Norway is simultaneously decommissioning its old research reactors. This requires knowledge of cleanup processes and the potential recovery of radionuclides (unstable atoms that emit radiation) for various purposes. Nuclear accidents have demonstrated the need for national preparedness. Today, expertise in nuclear emergency preparedness also addresses challenges related to conflicts in regions with nuclear facilities and the threat posed by nuclear weapons. Natural radioactivity is also present in Norway’s bedrock, creating challenges for several industries such as oil and mining. It also leads to high levels of radon in homes. The knowledge you acquire will be applicable across many areas of applied science. From protecting health and the environment to nuclear emergency preparedness and the safe decommissioning of nuclear installations. This master’s program aims to meet current and future needs for nuclear expertise. The program is taught in English. See the full overview of the program structure and all courses
