Description
The accident at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in 2011 altered the working environment for radiochemists in Japan, who are supposed to be in charge of several problems such as radioactive contamination and nuclear wastes from reactors. Under the circumstances, we are compelled to reexamine the education relating to such matters. I discuss the effect of the accident on some aspects of education of the field. (author)
