What Does a Nuclear Engineer Do?
Answer:
Nuclear engineers work with atomic particles
in one of many different areas of nuclear engineering. A particular nuclear engineer might perform research in nuclear medicine, design nuclear power plants, or work on developing nuclear weapons. Nuclear physics is another area of study for nuclear engineers who study atomic activity at a more theoretical level.

It is common for nuclear engineers to work for governments and help develop defense systems or deal with nuclear waste disposal. In the medical field, a nuclear engineer can study the long-term effects of radiation on living organisms, and use radiology for treatments and diagnoses. Among countries using nuclear power, nuclear engineers make sure that the power is safe and effective. Less commonly, nuclear engineers might work for a private company.
