About
Radiation Safety & Environment research is a branch of nuclear engineering/science concerned with the application of interaction between the Nuclear Engineering, science and environment technology.
The research areas of our group includes environmental radiation monitoring, environmental impact assessment around nuclear facilities, fuel cycle policy, spent fuel management,radioactive waste treatment/disposal technology, performance assessment of waste disposal sites and so forth.
