SUMMARY • INSTN Presentation • Landscape of need specialist for Nuclear Industry • Genie Atomique Engineering degree • Continuous Professional Training The Education and Training in Measurement and Instrumentation in INSTN
INSTN as part of the CEA • The French institute devoted to post-graduate education and professional training in nuclear science and technology within CEA, the French Atomic Energy Commission • The Institut National des Sciences et Techniques Nucléaires (INSTN) is an advanced education institution created within the Commissariat à l'Énergie Atomique (CEA) in 1956 and placed under the joint supervision of the Ministry of National Education and the Ministry of Industry. • INSTN’s mission : • To spread CEA knowledge and know-how through the organisation of E & T : • either education (mainly on a post graduate level) , • or continuous training (mainly for professionals) • INSTN also coordinates PhD programs across the CEA.
INSTN’s : students, trainees and professors • Students & trainees : • Students, engineers, medical doctors, pharmacists, from France or any other country, • Professionals from CEA, from French nuclear companies, from governmental agencies, school teachers,… • Foreign students or professionals. • Professors : • CEA researchers and experts, • French and foreign University teachers, • French and foreign engineers and experts from the industry, from the medical sector, from regulatory agencies.
Education within CEA-INSTN • At post graduate level: • Nuclear engineer degree, delivered by INSTN . • Medical physicist degree, delivered by INSTN. • Masters degree in cooperation with Universities or Engineering schools, • Specialities for medical doctors and pharmacists, At undergraduate level : professional “licence”, technician degrees (radiation protection).

Need in specialists for Nuclear Industry • In France for Nuclear Industry the need of specialists in instrumentation till 2012 is about (OPPIEC study april 2008) • 200/year Ingineers • 120/year technicians
INSTN Program • In the field of basic training INSTN • has his own program included in GA course • In association with University of Provence accredits a Master focused on Instrumentation & Measurements for test devices in severe environments • In the field of vocational or continuous training INSTN develops special courses
« Génie Atomique » Engineering degree • No undergraduate education in nuclear engineering in France • A one year specialization course in nuclear engineering (Cadarache, Cherbourg, Saclay) • 7 months : courses, conferences, visits, exercices, laboratory sessions (> 550 hours) 55 ECTS • 5 months : Master thesis interships in research centres, universities, industry..25 ECTS
