Master's program Science and Technology of Nuclear Fusion
Welcome to the Education Guide of the Master’s program Science and Technology of Nuclear Fusion. This Education Guide contains detailed, practical information about the Master’s program Science and Technology of Nuclear Fusion. The website is updated regularly during the academic year.
Besides the Education Guide, the Canvas 3INFO channel is the most important information and communication channel for all Master students Science and Technology of Nuclear Fusion. So, if you want to stay up to date on important and relevant news and information about your program, make sure you check this channel regularly.
Why Fusion?
The worldwide collaboration on the development of nuclear fusion as a safe, clean and inexhaustible energy source is now culminating in the construction of the large test reactor ITER. ITER is being built in Europe (in Cadarache, France) and will demonstrate 10-fold power multiplication at the 500 MW level.
The ITER project is giving the science and engineering of nuclear fusion a major boost. ITER will also need a new generation of highly trained engineers and scientists for its operation. Eindhoven University of Technology has selected fusion science and technology as one of its high profile areas, by starting a dedicated research group and establishing a full-blown education program on fusion at the Master level.
The Fusion Master is the obvious path for those who want to specialize in fusion. If you are bright and ambitious, interested in high-tech and not shy of a serious challenge, and feel a concern for the sustainability of the planet, Fusion might be just the study for you.
