The specialized course "Components" is organised by a team of engineers from EDF R&D research center. It is mainly devoted to operational feedbacks of structural materials used in PWR reactors and to their durability in order to fulfill requirements of existing nuclear plants, their replacement and the development of new technologies. Students follow a 2 weeks course given by engineers and researchers from EDF, with 1 week at EDF R&D center follow courses. No extra fees are required for this unique in-site teaching.
