Canada’s Nuclear University

With the world facing a climate crisis and demand for electricity surging, nuclear energy is back in the spotlight.

For David Novog, it’s long overdue recognition for nuclear’s low-carbon promise — but it comes with a new challenge. The McMaster engineering professor says developing talent and training leaders is critical now, with global nuclear capacity expected to more than double in the coming decades.

Fortunately, cultivating tomorrow’s nuclear workforce is something that McMaster is uniquely situated to do. The university is home to Canada’s largest research reactor and has a suite of world-class nuclear facilities where students get hands-on experience.
