ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Education, Training & Workforce Development
The Education, Training & Workforce Development Division provides communication among the academic, industrial, and governmental communities through the exchange of views and information on matters related to education, training and workforce development in nuclear and radiological science, engineering, and technology. Industry leaders, education and training professionals, and interested students work together through Society-sponsored meetings and publications, to enrich their professional development, to educate the general public, and to advance nuclear and radiological science and engineering.

The 2025 ANS election results are in!
Spring marks the passing of the torch for American Nuclear Society leadership. During this election cycle, ANS members voted for the newest vice president/president-elect, treasurer, and six board of director positions (four U.S., one non-U.S., one student). New professional division leadership was also decided on in this election, which opened February 25 and closed April 15. About 21 percent of eligible members of the Society voted—a similar turnout to last year.

Innovative and collaborative work has progressed nationally and internationally regarding hybrid and integrated energy systems, including those with nuclear, nonnuclear (including hydrogen), and renewable components. Optimal energy generation and prioritization strategies can be advanced using various metrics such as reliability, security, affordability, flexibility, resiliency, and sustainability. In many cases, risk and reliability methods offer insights that are difficult to obtain otherwise to evaluate coordinated use of various energy generators to meet energy demands across the electricity, industrial, and transportation sectors. This panel will discuss national laboratory and commercial industry experience, challenges and insights gained considering integrated and hybrid energy systems using risk and reliability methods. Progress in building applicable datasets and running dynamic simulations will also be discussed.
