22.312 is the MIT first year graduate course in nuclear engineering. It is offered in parallel with our nuclear reactor physics course 22.211. Course 22.312 emphasizes engineering principles of nuclear power reactors covering thermodynamic, fluid flow, heat transfer, and structural mechanics. It serves as the prerequisite for our advanced nuclear power technology courses in thermal hydraulics, course 22.313, and in structural mechanics course 22.314j.
