Since 1955, when the U.S Navy launched its first nuclear-powered submarine, nuclear engineers have been an integral part of homeland defense. Purdue Nuclear Engineering faculty and students are part of this partnership with the U.S. Navy, both as active duty officers and as researchers helping to design next-generation systems.
Purdue Nuclear Engineering graduate students Phillip Dressman and Josh Rudolph have been awarded a competitive internship for the 2017 Computational Physics Student Summer Workshop at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Purdue University School of Nuclear Engineering Associate Professor Gennady Miloshevsky was selected as a Marshall Faculty Fellow in the NASA Marshal Space Flight Center Faculty Fellowship Program for 2017 Summer.
The scholarship is awarded to an individual who has demonstrated engagement in outreach activities that inspire the next generation of women engineers.
