Nuclear Criticality Safety Pioneer’s Scholarship
The Nuclear Criticality Safety Pioneer’s Scholarship was established by the Nuclear Criticality Safety Division (NCSD) in June 2006. This scholarship is in recognition of those individuals who have been identified as being "Pioneers" in the industry and who have made major contributions to nuclear criticality safety. These individuals, as well as a brief summary of their significant contributions, are maintained on the NCS Division's web site.
One scholarship will be awarded to a graduate or upper level undergraduate (Junior/Senior) nuclear science/engineering major, with the desired emphasis on areas supporting nuclear criticality safety. These areas include, but are not limited to, computer code development for neutron transport calculations, critical or subcritical experiments, and neutron cross-section evaluation.
