Beyond the classroom: How a corporate-university partnership benefits the community
For the past several years, the University of North Carolina–Wilmington has hosted volunteer instructors from Wilmington-based GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy who teach engineering courses and engage with students. This guest instructor program has grown under the guidance of Amy Craig Reamer, associate professor of practice and director of engineering in the UNCW College of Science and Engineering’s Department of Computer Science. Under her oversight, an informal but strong public-private partnership has been established to the benefit of UNCW students and the wider Wilmington community.

High Performance Computing (HPC) is instrumental for conducting complex simulations and analyses essential for reactor design, safety assessment, and nuclear material studies. HPC enables researchers to model reactor behavior under various conditions, optimizing designs and enhancing safety measures. Additionally, HPC facilitates detailed analyses of nuclear materials' properties and behavior, aiding in fuel cycle management and waste disposal strategies. By leveraging the computational power of HPC, nuclear engineers can address challenges, improve reactor performance, and ensure the continued safety and reliability of nuclear energy systems. Join our panelists from national labs and universities to discover how supercomputers have accelerated their research and led to important insights about the world around us!
