GAO: Staffing problems continue to plague DOE-EM
A report by the Government Accountability Office has shown that the Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management continues to face significant staffing shortages since the GAO first reported on the problem in 2024. This includes a shortage in workers considered critical to carrying out the office’s mission of cleaning up radioactive waste from decades of nuclear weapons production and research.
The Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences (NERS) department at the University of Michigan is consistently ranked as the top nuclear engineering program in the U.S. The department is focused on advances in nuclear, radiological, and plasma sciences to improve society in the 21st Century.
