ADVANCE YOUR CAREER IN NUCLEAR PACKAGING AND RELATED FIELDS


AN OPPORTUNITY Join industry leaders in 2023 at Argonne National Laboratory for graduate-level training courses as part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Packaging University Program, supported by the DOE Office of Packaging and Transportation, Office of Environmental Management.


THE COURSES Argonne plans to host four week-long, in-person training courses on-site in 2023: ☐ Facility Decommissioning and Facility/Site Closure


☐ Response to Radioactive Material Transport Emergencies—a brand- new course developed by Argonne


☐ ASME Pressure Vessel Code for Nuclear Transport and Storage


☐ Nuclear and Other Radioactive Material Transport Security


Each course will be conducted by subject matter experts who cover topics ranging from applying the ASME Code and QA on packaging design and fabrication to facility decommissioning and decontamination and transport emergency response, and international transport security.

HANDS-ON EXPERIENCE Through the courses at Argonne, you’ll have hands-on experience with ARG-US remote monitoring systems, including the TRAVELER—technology for tracking and monitoring cargo conveyance that offers geographic information systems for emergency response, geofencing capability, and automatic notification of sensor alarms. You’ll also gain experience preparing electronic transport security plans.


For more details on ARG-US remote monitoring systems technology, see the preceding article in this special issue of Nuclear Engineering International.


Argonne National Laboratory seeks solutions to pressing national problems in science and technology. The nation’s first national laboratory, Argonne conducts leading-edge basic and applied scientific research in virtually every scientific discipline. Argonne researchers work closely with researchers from hundreds of companies, universities, and federal, state and municipal agencies to help them solve their specific problems, advance America’s scientific leadership and prepare the nation for a better future. With employees from more than 60 nations, Argonne is managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science.
