Four Institute Graduates Awarded Fellowships with Nuclear Agency
| by Jason Warburg
Four recent Middlebury Institute graduates were offered a full-time, salaried one-year fellowship with the National Nuclear Security Administration.
NPTS Spotlight: Nuclear Research Reactor Practicum
This 2-week course in Prague offered during the winter term and led by Dr. George Moore, offers students the opportunity to attend lectures at the Department of Nuclear Reactors at the Czech Technical University (CTU), conduct experiments on the research reactor, and go on site visits. The practicum also included a trip to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, Austria. Participants benefitted from the fact that many Institute alumni work at the IAEA, and also the office that the Institute’s James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies (CNS) has in Vienna, the Vienna Center for Disarmament and Nonproliferation (VCDNP).
