Sometimes you can’t get somewhere, but you still have to see inside. That’s as true for the hidden chambers of the Egyptian pyramids as it is for the handling and non-proliferation of nuclear fuel. A little bit of artificial intelligence (AI) can come in handy.

Each Spring, the College of Engineering recognizes the outstanding accomplishments of our graduate students and postdoctoral research assistants through several awards.

Drew Ryan, doctoral candidate at the School of Nuclear Engineering (NE), won the Best Movie Award at the 19th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal Hydraulics (NURETH 19). The conference took place virtually this year.
