  • NUC 380: Nuclear Rules and Regulations

    3.00 Credits
    Thomas Edison State University

    This course examines national and international guidance organizations and the United States government rules and regulations that govern the protection of workers, the environment, and the public from both radioactive materials and machine produced radiation, throughout their life cycles. With the objective of presenting as holistic a regulatory picture as possible, the focus will be on the regulations that originate from the following agencies: Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC); Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA); Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); Department of Transportation (DOT); and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The regulations of each agency will be accessed and analyzed with the emphasis on ""real-world"" regulatory compliance scenarios.

  • NUC 501: Atmospheric Dispersion of Radioisotopes

    3.00 Credits
    Thomas Edison State University

    This course examines the prediction of radiological consequences from the dispersion of airborne radioactive effluents. The theoretical models are substantiated by meteorological data and dose assessment. The applications phase will link the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) code RASCAL to nuclear facility licensing, compliance, and emergency planning. Use of the code for analysis and evaluation is incorporated into the course as instruction.
