Whether you're firmly against nuclear energy or see it as essential for meeting energy demand, we are responsible for a nuclear legacy and need to be equipped for a nuclear future. Losing the skills and knowledge required for handling nuclear energy and its outputs is not an option.

Investments in nuclear capacity in the UK are on the rise. At the same time, experts in this field are aging. It's crucial to nurture the next generation of engineers and scientists in this field.

About the Sustainability Salons

The Sustainability Salons bring the practical knowledge of industry together with the technical and theoretical expertise of academics, to inspire potential projects that help solve sustainability issues. We have EPSRC IAA funding available to support these projects. There will be around 50 people at each Sustainability Salon. We’ll provide refreshments and facilitators will loosely guide the discussions.
