Nuclear Engineering Technology, AS (NENT-AS)
This degree program was initially developed in the early 1980’s with Millstone Station (then Northeast Utilities, since 2000 Dominion Nuclear Connecticut) in Waterford, CT as a direct result of the Three Mile Island Nuclear Plant accident and the new federal requirement by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for an educational component to compliment training for federal licensure for ALL operational positions in a commercial nuclear power plant. Millstone station continues to offer full scholarships for 16 new full-time freshmen enrolling the Nuclear Engineering Technology (NET) Degree program each academic year. These scholarships also include 12 weeks of summer internship employment at the Millstone Station site between the first and second academic year. Non-scholarship students have similar summer internship opportunities with
