    Radiation interactions will provide the students with a fundamental understanding of basic principles of radiation interactions with matter. These fundamental principles will then be applied to the life-cycle of neutrons in a reactor and the detection of radiation. Prerequisites: "C-" or better in (MATH 1220 OR MATH 1320 OR MATH 1321) OR AP Calc BC score of 4+) AND (CHEM 1220 OR CHEM 1221) AND (CVEEN 2010 OR ME EN 2010 OR PHYS 2220 OR PHYS 3220 OR AP Phys EM score of 4+).

    Radiochemistry is almost non-existent in US and sporadically found around the world. The renaissance in nuclear engineering around the globe including the US, points toward its revitalization supported by major nuclear agencies and vendors. This course will give the students understanding of what the radiochemistry is, where to apply, and how to become a radiochemist. Prerequisites: "C-" or better in (MATH 1220 OR MATH 1320 OR MATH 1321 OR AP Calc BC score of 4+) AND (CHEM 1220 OR CHEM 1221) AND (CVEEN 2010 OR ME EN 2010 OR PHYS 2220 OR PHYS 3220 OR AP PHYS EM score of 4+).
