Nuclear Industry Group
This is an IOP special interest group, which is a community of IOP members focused on a particular discipline, application or area of interest.
Special interest groups allow members to connect and share knowledge and ideas. The IOP funds groups to deliver a range of activities including events, prizes and bursaries. All of our groups are driven by members.
About the group
As a special interest, member-driven group, we are interested in all aspects of the nuclear industry. Our role is to:
- recognise the interests of a broad audience
- encourage links between physicists in the nuclear industry
- welcome members from a wide range of professional backgrounds
- appreciate diverse roles of physicists in civil and defence nuclear industries
You might be:
- employed in the industry
- a student considering a career in this sector
- someone with a general interest in this field
What the group does
We represent physicists involved with or interested in all aspects of the nuclear industry.
We look forward to welcoming you as a member and meeting you at an event.
