Description

The INSTN (Institute for Nuclear Sciences and Nuclear Technologies) is the applied school in nuclear technologies that has been present for 60 years for specialized training and vocational training. The integration of numerical technologies has allowed INSTN to adapt its way of teaching and to overcome difficulties like distances and to propose for instance practical exercises on the ISIS experimental reactor through the web for foreign graduate schools. The INSTN has realized its first SPOC (Small Private Online Course) and is preparing 2 MOOC (Massive Open Online Course). Since 2016, the INSTN has become 1 of the 2 training centers appointed as 'collaborating center' by the IAEA in the field of nuclear technologies and their industrial and radio-pharmaceutical applications.
