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.

How does one blaze a trail for others to follow, especially when you may be the only one from your hometown to think about entering nuclear engineering/science? Panelists will discuss, through their extensive experience, how outreach through nuclear science related activities as well as other efforts can help give back to the communities we call home as well as leave a path for others to follow in.
