NN Asks: How can university faculty help the nuclear industry meet GenAI-era energy demands?
Pavel Tsvetkov
This question is the one that we ask and answer every day. University faculty are uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between generative AI capabilities and the nuclear industry’s evolving energy challenges. By leveraging our expertise in research, education, and collaboration, faculty can drive advancements in nuclear technology, cultivate a skilled workforce, and foster public and industry support.
There is no industry without a skilled, well-educated workforce. At Texas A&M’s Department of Nuclear Engineering, we nurture our students through a very comprehensive and rigorous nuclear engineering program, which has a critical impact on the nuclear industry as those students enter the workforce. As nuclear industry demands grow, so too our student population is growing. We are approaching 200 graduate students and 400 undergraduate students in our programs.
