Let's keep learning, growing, and aiming high!

Meet The Next Generation

Atomic Visionaries

"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less."

- Marie Curie

"There are two possible outcomes: if the result confirms the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery."

- Enrico Fermi

"An expert is a person who has made all the mistakes that can be made in a very narrow field."

- Niels Bohr

"As a chemist, I must say that nuclear fission is an act of chemical synthesis that creates new elements from old."

- Otto Hahn

"When you see something that is technically sweet, you go ahead and do it and you argue about what to do about it only after you have had your technical success."

- J. Robert Oppenheimer

"Only a short while ago, no one would have believed it possible that neutrons could create elements far from the initial ones. But now it has happened."

- Fritz Strassmann

"Physics is the most difficult branch of physics."

- Eugene Wigner

"Science is an exciting endeavor. It's the exploration of the unknown. It's an adventure into the heart of matter."

- Glenn T. Seaborg

Freshman Survival Guide

01. How do I survive the first semester workload? +
Consistency is key in NSE. Focus on understanding the fundamentals of Physics and Calculus early on. Don't let lab reports pile upβ€”finish them the day you perform the experiment!
02. Which programming languages should I focus on? +
For Nuclear Engineering, Python and MATLAB are your best friends. Python is great for data analysis, while MATLAB is essential for complex simulations and reactor calculations.
03. Are there specific textbooks I should look for? +
Start with "Introduction to Nuclear Engineering" by John R. Lamarsh. It's the "bible" for NSE students. For basics, keep your Halliday-Resnick Physics books handy.
04. What is the scope of NSE in Bangladesh? +
With the Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant project and the Bangladesh Atomic Energy Commission (BAEC), the field is expanding rapidly. There are also massive opportunities for research and PhDs in Europe, the US, and Russia.
