Need study advice before starting a Masters program in Nuclear Engineering

AI Thread Summary
Starting a master's in nuclear engineering after a six-year gap requires a solid review of relevant math and physics topics. Key areas to focus on include advanced calculus, differential equations, and linear algebra, as well as classical mechanics and thermodynamics. Understanding the specific syllabus of the nuclear engineering program can help identify additional subjects that may need review. Engaging with current students or faculty can provide insights into essential topics and resources. Preparing adequately will enhance readiness for the upcoming program.

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
