The top 10 states of nuclear
The past few years have seen a concerted effort from many U.S. states to encourage nuclear development. The momentum behind nuclear-friendly policies has grown considerably, with many states repealing moratoriums, courting nuclear developers and suppliers, and in some cases creating advisory groups and road maps to push deployment of new nuclear reactors.
The Department of Nuclear Science & Engineering at MIT advances and accelerates nuclear science, engineering, and technology development for the benefit of society and the environment. Our vision is a sustainable future where nuclear science and technology are leveraged for the benefit of humankind and the planet. Our mission is to develop the next generation of leaders of the global nuclear community, advance basic research, provide technical leadership on energy and non-energy applications of nuclear technology, and inform public discussion about nuclear science and technology, in order to address global grand challenges.
