ANS seeks program evaluators for ABET accreditation
When ABET visits universities for accreditation purposes, it’s crucial that a qualified nuclear expert performs the assessment of that school’s nuclear engineering, radiological engineering, and/or health physics programs. The Accreditation Policies and Procedures Committee (APPC) of the American Nuclear Society works to ensure that a program evaluator (PEV) from the Society leads these ABET assessments.

The “CEA cryogenic target fabrication project” includes materials and technological research on the Cryogenic Target Assembly (CTA), the DT filling and cryogenic transport to the LMJ site, and the conformation of the DT solid layer. The Research program to deliver CTAs to LMJ in 2010 is described. Some important experimental results have already been obtained, and are presented.
