Education and training to support Canadian nuclear workforce development
Along with several other nations, Canada has committed to net-zero emissions by 2050. Part of this plan is tripling nuclear generating capacity. As of 2025, the country has four operating nuclear generating stations with a total of 17 reactors, 16 of which are in the province of Ontario. The Independent Electricity System Operator has recommended that an additional 17,800 MWe of nuclear power be added to Ontario’s grid.
2023 ANS Student Conference Speaker
Jeremy graduated with a B.S. in Nuclear, Plasma, and Radiological Engineering from UIUC in 2018, and is now a graduate student studying plasma processing under Professor David Ruzic. He has been involved in ANS throughout his college career, serving at both the local and national level. As an undergraduate, Jeremy served as the External Vice President and President of the UIUC ANS chapter. In graduate school, Jeremy has continued his involvement through mentorship, participation in the student sections committee of ANS, and most recently in the planning and hosting of the 2022 ANS Student Conference as the technical co-chair. After his graduate degree Jeremy aspires to stay in academia as a professor so he can continue to engage with students and the nuclear community as a whole.
