Visit high school seniors and juniors on routine basis, it would be preferable that juniors and seniors from ChNE department participate in these visits to high school. They showed willingness to participate, if they were given credit for it. This could be a part of elective course assignment. Another suggestion was made that student chapter of AIChE or ANS take up this activity of visiting high school juniors and seniors. They feel there is no coordination between the university placement center and the School of Engineering and the former was not very helpful to them in finding coop positions.
NE majors have more difficulty because requirement of security clearance.
There was a comment that the choice of technical electives is very limited, and much more so for NE majors. The latter mentioned that only space nuclear power and fusion courses were actually available. Some courses are listed but have not been offered since the early 90s . One particularly serious absence is a course in nuclear fuel behavior and reactor safety. The NE students felt that the absence of such a course was a serious impediment to their being able to secure a job in the nuclear power industry after graduation.
