| Nuclear Education and Training at Harbin Engineering University, China Puzhen Gao1; 1HARBIN ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY, Harbin, China; PAPER: 78/Energy/Regular (Oral) SCHEDULED: 12:10/Thu. 24 Oct. 2019/Coralino ABSTRACT: 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 are in demand. Universities play an important role in providing nuclear engineering professionals. The presentation will introduce the nuclear engineering education in China, specifically at Harbin Engineering University (HEU). HEU is a national key university. It has a long glorious history and good tradition. The nuclear major at HEU was founded in 1958. With the support of the Chinese government and the IAEA, the College of Nuclear Science and Technology (CNST) has become the largest nuclear engineering education and training base in China. CNST annually trains and outputs 300-350 students with different degrees. The presentation will cover: - Nuclear education and training at HEU, including application of simulators and virtual reality tools. -Teaching Labs, the nuclear power simulation center, and the virtual reality lab. - Student academic activities, International cooperation, and Student exchange.
