Operators at a nuclear powered generating facility are required to obtain an operating license from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, a branch of the federal government. Licensed operators assume responsibility for the safe and efficient operation of a nuclear reactor and its auxiliaries, as well as the turbine-generator and related auxiliaries.

This program is designed to provide the license applicant with an adequate background in physics, theory, equipment technology, and procedural and administrative programs necessary to complete the federal licensing examination.
NOTE: Students must receive prior approval from a participating nuclear facility in order to enroll in this program.
