FREDMANS project (https://enen.eu/index.php/portfolio/fredmans-project/ ) aims to increase safety and efficiency in both nuclear power production and the recycling of spent fuel. The research-development activities it addresses are complemented by an education and training programme in the field of nuclear fuels.

Young scientists with relevant theoretical and, above all, practical knowledge will be trained in the E&T programme answering the needs for skills and abilities in the field of nuclear fuels, combining theoretical courses with hands-on training sessions, thus ensuring the transfer of valuable experience gained by the specialists with outstanding competencies in this field.

Topics:

The first training session dedicates its courses/lectures and hands-on training to:

• Fuel characteristics and performances requested for an LFR reactor
• Basics of nuclear fuel fabrication and characterisation

Expected audience:

This course is mainly addressed to:  Students, Master students, PhD students, young researchers.

Due to the hands-on activities and existing availabilities, the audience is limited to 12 trainees.
