Abstract: As nuclear engineers, much of our training focuses on skills for the Nuclear Industry. However, the interdisciplinary skills obtained in the pursuit of a nuclear engineering degree open a large number of career opportunities. These skills are invaluable to employers and allow nuclear engineers entry into a variety of career fields. From particle interactions, radiation transports and detection, to full system integration of hardware, firmware, software, and electronics, each of these skills allow an engineer to solve problems from the unique perspective of a technologists, with a strong physics and math background. The presentation is an overview of how these skills are applied to problem solving in different technical areas, touching on underlying technology in areas from reactor decommissioning, radiation detection and measurement and Scatter X-ray Imaging (SXI).
