Handbook

Students will learn from UNSW academics, senior professionals at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) and from the Australian Safeguards and Non-proliferation Office (ASNO) how specific nuclear materials and safety- or security-critical systems are regulated in the organisational, national and international context. The course emphasises both knowledge and application. The assessments include presenting and critiquing safety cases and threat assessments, applying the tools for engineering safety assessments, and planning and communication for a localised nuclear accident case study. All these skills will be applicable in a wide range of contexts.
