| Programme description | Radioecology is a key research area ranging from nuclear sources to impact and risk assessment and radiation protection. In a diverse process you will gain knowledge about radioecology; behaviour of radionuclides in the environment, as well as impact and risk assessment based on radiochemistry and radiation protection, the nuclear industry and waste management, project management and research methods. Skills in these areas are required not only to deal with currently installed nuclear capacity and decommissioned facilities, but also to meet the needs presented by likely newbuilt nuclear installations. |
