ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS AND TRAINING

Applicants should have a bachelor of science degree in one of the

engineering sciences.  For some jobs, a knowledge of computer simulation

techniques is valuable.  Engineering work requires patience and precision;

engineers must be creative and analytical.  Both mathematical and mechanical

aptitudes are essential to success in this occupation.  Navy experience in

nuclear ratings (electrician, electronic technician, and machinist mate) is

valuable experience for potential nuclear engineers.  Applicants are

generally required to pass a physical examination.  Some employers require a

drug test as a condition of employment.  Handicaps which do not affect job

performance are not considered disqualifying.  Good color vision is needed

in laboratory work.  Security clearances may be required when working on

some highly classified projects.

High school students considering this occupation should take courses in

higher mathematics such as geometry, trigonometry, calculus, the physical

sciences, machine shop, and English.  Drafting and mechanical drawing skills

must also be developed.  Courses in electronics, business administration,

computer science, and the social sciences are also important for future

college training and a career in engineering.

Some employers prefer Nuclear Engineer applicants to be registered with the

State of California, Consumer Services Agency.  California registers Nuclear

Engineers in the same manner as civil, chemical, and other types of

engineers.  Applicants must pass an Engineer-In-Training (EIT) exam which

covers all areas of engineering.  They must then work for one or more years,

depending on their degrees, and pass an eight-hour written exam in nuclear

engineering.  Those with doctorates may have the EIT exam waived, but must

have worked as Nuclear Engineers for at least one year to take the

professional exam.  Many engineers are members of the American Nuclear

Society or other professional organizations.
