For 144 years, the Ohio State University has been one of the nation's largest and leading institutions of higher learning with more than 66,000 students and 3,400 faculty. Ohio State, one of the nation's top 20 public universities with $934 million in research, conducts research in the areas of heath sciences, energy and environment and food production and security
The Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Ohio State houses a nuclear engineering graduate program that is strengthened by the presence of a 500 kW nuclear reactor. This program is designed to prepare students for successful careers in a variety of specialty areas associated with the application of radiation, radioactive materials and nuclear fission.
The Nuclear Reactor Laboratory is used for a wide range of nuclear-related research endeavors, including evaluation of material elemental constituents using neutron activation analysis and neutron depth profiling; evaluation of radiation damage to electronic components and other materials, such as optical fibers and optical fiber-based sensors; evaluation of neutron and gamma-ray radiation sensitive detector performance; isotope production; and biomedical experiments.
