In addition to the traditional nuclear science and technology and nuclear engineering departments, the employers are mainly concentrated in fields and departments closely related to modern physical technology and information technology (IT).
including government departments, planning departments and economic management departments in environment, medical care, health, national defense, industry and agriculture, scientific research and design units (stations, factories, hospitals and institutes) of nuclear power projects, nuclear power and nuclear heating and conventional thermal power plants, industrial and mining enterprises, universities and colleges, etc., engaged in research, planning, design, construction, operation management of nuclear power plants, equipment manufacturing, research and development, technical consultation and other work.
As nuclear energy will become the green pillar of China's future energy, graduates majoring in nuclear engineering and technology are well received by the society and have good employment prospects.
as a clean energy source, nuclear power has a small volume compared with traditional energy sources, and 1, grams of uranium is equivalent to 1, tons of standard coal. There is no greenhouse gas in the process of nuclear power generation, and the environmental load is extremely small. Since the 197s, China's nuclear power construction has developed rapidly, but its proportion in the whole power supply is still low.
