Join us for an open house for MCCC’s Nuclear Engineering Technology program!
Learn about the program, careers in nuclear engineering technology and nuclear energy’s role – now and in the future – in electricity production in the U.S. and the region. A question and answer session and tours of MCCC’s facility will be provided.
MCCC and DTE Energy partnered to create MCCC’s Nuclear Engineering Technology program 13 years ago. The program was established in response to increasing demand for highly skilled professionals in the nuclear power industry in the region, including DTE’s Fermi 2 nuclear power plant.
The associate of applied science degree with specialization in nuclear engineering technology at MCCC enables students to seek employment as nuclear engineering technicians in the nuclear power industry. Graduates of the program are prepared for entry-level employment as electrical technicians, instrumentation and control technicians and mechanical technicians.
