Hey there,

I'm currently about to start a postgraduatde MSc Nuclear Science and Technology course (with most subjects looking in safety, risk assesment, fuel cycles, design and a project in damage simulation) after completing BSc Chemistry and Molecular Physics with engineering experience after time at BAE Systems and MIRA Ltd.

I was wondering if anybody could provide any further insight into jobs in the nuclear industry, in particular to nuclear safety, in terms of initial and potential salaries, job progression and if there are any particular companies I should keep a look out for (UK based but also looking at France as i speak french and europe)?

I'm wary other people have posted regarding this subject - apologies for repetition!

Thanks for your time!
