What’s the most difficult question you’ve been asked as a maintenance instructor?
Blye Widmar
"Where are the prints?!"
This was the final question in an onslaught of verbal feedback, comments, and critiques I received from my students back in 2019. I had two years of instructor experience and was teaching a class that had been meticulously rehearsed in preparation for an accreditation visit. I knew the training material well and transferred that knowledge effectively enough for all the students to pass the class. As we wrapped up, I asked the students how they felt about my first big system-level class, and they did not hold back.
“Why was the exam from memory when we don’t work from memory in the plant?” “Why didn’t we refer to the vendor documents?” “Why didn’t we practice more on the mock-up?” And so on.

Elevating Peak Performance
Denver, CO|The Westin Denver Downtown
Nestled at the gateway to the Rocky Mountain National Park, the M&C 2025 host city, Denver, Colorado, is known for its breathtaking mountain scenery, world-class museums, vibrant and diverse culture, and its unparalleled craft breweries. We hope you can join us in this beautiful setting to enjoy a technical program full of cutting-edge research.
The International Conference on Mathematics and Computational Methods Applied to Nuclear Science and Engineering (M&C 2025) is part of a series of topical meetings organized by the Mathematics and Computation Division of the American Nuclear Society. M&C conferences, held every two years, represent a series of international forums organized and sponsored to bring together worldwide expertise related to nuclear science or technology, including mathematical and computational methods, numerical analysis, computer codes, computer architectures, and benchmarks for computationally solving problems in all disciplines encompassed by the Society.

M&C 2025 call for journal papers
M&C 2025 has partnered with the ANS journal Nuclear Science and Engineering (NSE) to publish a special issue of papers derived from the conference.
**Submission window: open now with a deadline of July 30, 2025.
Details:
Click here to submit. Please select “M&C 2025” from the list of special issues.
Questions? Email nse@ans.org.
Alternatively, should you choose not to pursue journal publication, we invite you to consider submitting to the ANS online platform Nuclear Science and Technology Open Research (NSTOR). NSTOR welcomes submissions where authors prefer, or funders require, a fully open publication venue for research articles, and/or where authors would like to submit article types not typically supported by archival journals (e.g., brief reports, method articles, data notes, posters/presentations). NSTOR is fully open access and has publication charges dependent upon article type; although, these fees are 50% discounted if submitting before December 31, 2025.
Submit to NSTOR – Questions? Email nstor@ans.org.
Thank you again for attending M&C 2025, and we hope you participate in this special issue opportunity!
Our very best,
