Energy’s Office of Nuclear
Energy today awarded more
than $590,000 in funding to
three universities to
enhance nuclear energy
instruction.
The funding
will provide K-12,
vocational schools, and
colleges access to
university research reactors
to increase nuclear science,
engineering, and technology
awareness, and foster early
interest in careers in
nuclear energy.
The University
Reactor Sharing and Outreach
Program funding opportunity

existing nuclear research
reactors to share resources
and facilities with other
