"summary": "The multi award-winning National College for Nuclear has state-of-the-art facilities including a reactor simulator and virtual reality training environment designed to provide students with high-tech, specialist training to support the nuclear industry.\n\nWorking with our industry partners such as EDF Energy, AWE, Cavendish Nuclear and Magnox ensures the training and education provides a world-class experience that develops the skills needed in this high profile, technical and demanding sector. These partnerships allow you to gain technical knowledge and practical experience, along with behavioural and personal skills, required for your future career. These are acquired through a mix of learning in the workplace, learning through the National College for Nuclear and the opportunity to practise and embed new skills in a real-world context.\n\nModules are taught in seminar- style classroom and workshop settings, in a mix of face-to-face and online study. Plus, specialist Guest Speakers from the industry enhance your knowledge and understanding of the sector. Mathematics is embedded throughout, rather than taught as a separate module.\n\n**Progression Opportunities**\nThis degree programme is designed to maximise employment opportunities within the nuclear (or broader engineering) sector. It may also be used for progression on to a Masters course.",
