NextGen MURR Working Group established in Missouri
The University of Missouri’s Board of Curators has created the NextGen MURR Working Group to serve as a strategic advisory body for the development of the NextGen MURR (University of Missouri Research Reactor).
Curtiss-Wright offers a comprehensive range of products and services that sustain the safe and reliable operation of nuclear power plants across the world. Our nuclear legacy dates back to 1957, when the first commercial nuclear power plant in Shippingport, PA began its operations.
Today, more than 65 years later, Curtiss-Wright continues to meet the demands of operating nuclear reactors, while expanding our capabilities to support the next generation of advanced reactor designs. We deliver innovative solutions for Plant Life Extension (PLEX), Extended Power Uprate (EPU) programs, and critical plant obsolescence issues. Curtiss-Wright meets all NQA-1 qualifications and maintains certifications in alignment with industry standards.
Through our business units and legacy brands—including Anatec-LMT, AP Services, Enertech, NETCO, Nova, Scientech, Trentec, and WSC—we offer:
