The Master MaNuEn - Materials Science for Nuclear Energy is an international master designed for students wishing to pursue a career in the nuclear industry, in R & D or working for research organizations. MaNuEn is a 2-year master's degree aiming at covering the specificities of materials used in a nuclear environment, mainly nuclear fuels and components, with a particular focus on the durability of materials under irradiation. The second year of the MaNuEn Master is common with the Master of Science in Nuclear Energy - EMINE (first year at KTH in Sweden or the UPC in Spain) Master of Science Innovation in Nuclear Energy - EMINE

Program
Course duration :2 ans
Program
M1
In the first year, courses focus on the fundamentals of materials science and reactor physics. An internship (2-3 months) is performed between the first and the second year.
- Fundamentals of materials science 1 (6 ECTS) - Fundamentals of materials science 2 (6 ECTS) - Materials and numerical methods (6 ECTS) - Reactor physics and nuclear engineering (6 ECTS) - Physics / language (6 ECTS) - Elaboration and material characterization (7 ECTS) - Applied materials 2 (6 ECTS) - Mechanics and modeling (6 ECTS) - Internship (11 ECTS)
The content of the second-year program and courses has been established in collaboration with EDF engineers and CEA engineers. The second year takes place over 2 semesters: all the courses of the master are taught in the first semester (September to January) : 2 specialized courses taught at CEA Cadarache (3 weeks in December) and Material Aging Instiute (2 weeks in January at EDF Renardières) are part of the curriculum. The second semester is devoted to an internship of 5 months minimum in industry or research laboratory.
- Reactor concepts and materials (6 ECTS) - Material ageing in nuclear environment (6 ECTS) - Components at EDF + energy issues (6 ECTS) - nuclear fuels at CEA (6 ECTS) - language and project (6 ECTS) - Internship / master thesis (30 ECTS)
