Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a successful year ahead. Thank you for your continued dedication and support. Warm regards from the UC Berkeley Department of Nuclear Engineering

We are so excited to extend our best wishes to Prof. Lee Bernstein and Dr. Andrew Voyles, as they officially launch Envoy Labs ( https://t.co/JrXSBb6lLp). Their mission is to accelerate the production of Actinium and Lead isotopes for next-generation cancer therapies.

📢BIG NEWS! Our student section has officially been selected to host the 2027 Student Conference! 🎉🎉🎉 Huge congratulations to the entire ANS team for their outstanding work in making this happen. GO BEARS 🐻💙💛

A few weeks ago at the After Dark: Nuclear Options event at the Exploratorium, UC Berkeley’s NE faculty — Max Fratoni, Jasmina Vujic, Guanyu Su, and Raluca Scarlat — delivered an engaging and accessible talk titled “Fact or Fission? The Nuance Behind Nuclear Basics.”

We’re excited to share that Professor Peter Hosemann has been awarded the distinguished title of Adjunct Professor by his alma mater, Montanuniversitaet Leoben. He will be officially appointed at the winter graduation ceremony on December 19 in Austria! Congratulations Professor!

Congratulations to the UC Berkeley Nuclear Engineering class of 2025! 🎉 🎓 #BerkeleyNUC

Students in the NE 180 Intro to Controlled Fusion course led by Professor Ellie Tubman had the exciting opportunity to tour the NIF at LLNL. The visit included stops at the NIF itself, as well as the target fabrication and optics lab. Special thanks to the hosts at LLNL!⭐

More details about the projects can be found here: https://t.co/eWZgo1KDCg Congratulations to this year's MEng graduates! 🎉

Last week, UCBNE MEng students showcased their capstone projects at the Fung Institute End of Year Showcase. This event brought together students, faculty, alumni, industry partners & members of the broader innovation community to explore cutting-edge work in engineering + tech.

More information about the plutonium sample is available at https://t.co/rQmHVn2HIl. 🔬 ⚛️ (3/3)

This course explores a variety of topics in nuclear security and nonproliferation including nuclear source search, localization, and imaging; indicators for fissile material production; active interrogation; and nuclear arms control and treaty verification. (2/3)

Last week, students in the spring 2025 NE130/230 Analytical Methods for Nonproliferation course had a special opportunity to see and hold the first macroscopic sample of plutonium isolated by Glenn Seaborg during the Manhattan Project. (1/3)

Congratulations to UCBNE graduate student Oscar Matousek on being awarded Best Oral Presenter at the first annual Medical Physics in Imaging and Therapy Research Symposium hosted by UCSF!
