Nuclear Engineering programme is to train and prepare students to become nuclear engineers with the capability in designing, producing, constructing, RnD, maintenance, sales, consultancy, education, and training. Nuclear engineering deals with the practical application of nuclear processes. Nuclear engineering is based upon the extensive use of mathematics and physical principles. These principles are applied to radioactivity, nuclear interactions, and the interaction of radiation with materials. Further applications require the knowledge of energy removal and conversion, materials science, instrumentation and control, and chemistry. This program also embeds the knowledge of artificial intelligence for nuclear engineer as well as green and sustainable energy technologies. The programme was designed in such a graduate should be able to perform tasks and functions for a nuclear power program that require primarily nuclear-related qualifications, both in design and construction and in the operation of a nuclear power plant and in other nuclear related industries.
Core engineering courses: 95 credits
Program elective courses: 6 credits
Free elective course: 3 credits
Math, Science and Non-engineering courses: 15 credits
University general courses: 16 credits
After having exposed to 3 to 5 years working experience, our graduates should become professionals who demonstrate the following competencies:
PEO 1 : Become competent holistic professionals in nuclear engineering or related industries
PEO 2 : Contribute towards sustainable development through knowledge and innovative technologies to prosper lives

Nuclear engineering fields cover a wide area of career opportunities in energy, medicine, security, environment, and satellites. Nuclear engineering program offered by UTM does not only focuses on producing holistic graduates in nuclear engineering but also allows them to be universal, versatile, and flexible in both nuclear and non-nuclear sectors. Most of the Nuclear Engineering UTM graduates find employment in the public sectors such as government agencies, universities, hospitals and in the private sectors such as Semiconductor, Oil and Gas Maintenance, Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), Radiation Protection Officers, Manufacturing, and Application Engineering. The rest of them further their studies in nuclear engineering and also in other disciplines such as chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, gas engineering, bioprocess, and energy management.
