  1. MASTER MaNuEn Materials Science for Nuclear Energy

  2. Need for materials Science competences Have the current PWR last longer : durability issues Future reactors EPR, Gen III, Gen IV Context

  3. Joint Master with EDF (Matérial Ageing Institute)* and CEA * : 50% of the lectures in the Master are given by engineers from CEA and EDF A direct contact with engineers of the field and future employers : Part of the lectures on site in EDF-Paris or CEA Cadarache Visits of research labs A common set of lectures (3 monthes) then 2 options Structures Fuel A serie of general interest lectures on energy issues : Assets

  4. Organisation Common lectures Reactir design and materials selection Physics of irradiation damage (modelling) Durability and fracture, corrosion under irradiation, Option « Components » Lectures at EDF R&D Feedback on field experience from EDF plants Materials for future generation Materials issues in downstream fuel cycle Option « Fuel » Lectures at CEA Cadarache Fluids , fuels and coolants Fuel irradiation Fuel cycle

  5. The Materials Ageing Institute is a utility oriented research center founded in January 2008 by Electricité de France (EDF), the Tokyo Electric Power Corporation (TEPCO) and the US Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). The key purpose of the MAI is to direct efforts in research and development towards ageing of materials used in electrical power facilities. This initiative by the world’s biggest nuclear operators is motivated by the conviction that sharing research, experimental results, feedback and scientific information will significantly contribute to our understanding of the ageing processes in various materials employed in both nuclear and non-nuclear power plants. The combination of operational know-how, experimental knowledge, and computer modelling of coupled processes can then be used to anticipate ageing and henceforth Partnership Materials ageing Institute MAI . Le bâtiment du MAI Training program, EPRI is a member of the partners
