Nuclear Phenomena for Engineering Applications (NPEA) surveys the quantitative and qualitative aspects of how atomic and nuclear phenomena apply to our everyday lives through technology and the environment. In a world that is increasingly welcoming and relying on responsible applications of nuclear technology to achieve global prosperity, the knowledge that NPEA provides can open significant career, discovery, and technology leadership opportunities. NPEA also surveys the implications of nuclear technology to instill awareness about what "responsible application" can mean.

"Just because a blended/hybrid mode was the right way to go didn't mean that a computer-Luddite like me should be part of it\! Sure, the course was a great success, but not until I began to fill out the ECP Rubric could I take in the big picture: how far Marie-Pierre Huguet (the Course Developer) had brought us, and what Don Steiner (the content expert) had laid the foundation for. The Rubric also reminded us that there is more to do, but it confirmed that we are well along the right path."
