Nuclear Power is developing fast in China. Peaceful and safe use of nuclear energy requires not only advanced technology, but also an extensive and intensive safety culture. A large number of personnel with nuclear safety technology and nuclear safety vision is in demand. Universities play an important role in providing nuclear engineering professionals. The presentation will introduce the nuclear engineering education in China, and specifically at Harbin Engineering University (HEU). HEU is a national key university. It has a long glorious history and good tradition. Nuclear major at HEU was founded in 1958. With the support of Chinese government and IAEA, the College of Nuclear Science and Technology (CNST) has become the largest nuclear education and training base in China. CNST annually trains and outputs about 400 students with different degrees.
The presentation will cover Nuclear education and training at HEU, including application of simulators and virtual reality tools.
