EMGT 675 - Nuclear Incident Management
This course provides emergency planners with the basic theories and science of mobile nuclear power plants (as found in submarines), nuclear weaponry, and fixed nuclear facilities that generate power. Past nuclear incidents or case studies will be reviewed to equip emergency managers with basic comprehension of the subject to engage credibly with scientists and nuclear power engineers in all phases of nuclear emergencies, whether intentional or accidental. The primary emphasis of the course is on fixed nuclear facilities, but potential for emergencies in the transportation of nuclear weaponry or caused by events designed to inflict injury with nuclear weapons will be explored. All information included in this course will be unclassified. No onsite research project will be included in order to prevent accidental exposure of classified information.
