5 Outline of Graduate Major in Nuclear 5

6 6 History of Nuclear Education and Research in Tokyo Tech 1956 Establishment of nuclear research facility in School of Science and 1957 Establishment of Department of Nuclear in School of Science and 1964 Establishment of Research Laboratory for Nuclear Reactors (RLNR) 2003~ st century Center Of Excellence program Innovative Nuclear Energy Systems for Sustainable Development of the World (COE-INES) 2006 Establishment of Center for Research into Innovative Nuclear Energy Systems (CRINES) 2016 Establishment of Laboratory for Advanced Nuclear Energy (LANE), Institute of Innovative Research 2016 Establishment of Graduate Major in Nuclear 8

7 7 Features of Graduate Major in Nuclear Interdisciplinary Graduate Majors Education for students who learned fundamentals of various engineering field Systematic curriculum in nuclear engineering Nuclear engineering field is widely covered. Required coerces Laboratories Multi-Lab training Experience of several research groups Curriculum for Fukushima Daiichi NPS decommissioning International Internship Support by Laboratory for Advanced Nuclear Energy 10

8 Example of International Internship Student exchange program with Russian university Student exchange with Russia National Research University (MEPhI) Short term dispatch: Two weeks Long term dispatch: Three months Joint Forum for students Fig. 2. Facility visit (Control room, the world first NPP, IPEE, Obninsk) Fig 1. Student joint workshop(presentation) 8 Fig. 3. Facility visit (Reactor room, the world first NPP, IPEE, Obninsk)

9 Concept of nuclear education Undergraduate school Study an engineering field systematically Master s program in graduate Study the fundamentals of nuclear engineering systematically Understand the fundamentals deeply by laboratories Master s study, Doctoral study Perform research for a topic related nuclear engineering based on each background International internship and student exchange program 9

10 Nuclear education for future 10

11 Background Needs of human resources in nuclear field Toward low-carbon society Cooperation with other energy sources Renewable, Natural gas, etc. Risk of big project How to avoid it? 11

12 What is necessary in nuclear education for future? Sense of venture Ability to propose and to realize Entrepreneurship Knowledge of various fields Management of big project Ability to manage big project supervising several fields Educational activity together with other fields? 12
