About Us
To provide safe nuclear energy to fuel India’s ambitious nuclear energy growth, safety research, new materials development and strengthening of the safeguard regime is imperative. The Nuclear Engineering and Technology (NET-IITK) programmme within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at IIT-Kanpur is extensively researching nuclear safety issues, heat transfer behavior for safe operation, accident detection systems, radioactive release mitigations systems etc..
Further, NET-IITK is also involved in the development of technology to support the development of new generation of nuclear reactors such as molten salt reactors like the prototype fast breeder reactor constructed in Kalpakkam....Read More

Nuclear Engineering and Technology Programme (NET) is interdisciplinary in nature and the eligibility criterion for applicants is a Bachelor's degree in any branch of engineering or an M.Sc. degree (Physics/Chemistry/Mathematics). A valid GATE score is required to apply for the M.Tech. degree.
The PhD programme requires a Masters degree in Nuclear Engineering or in a related branch of engineering. The course work consists of a set of required courses covering the basic concepts of nuclear science and engineering, experimental techniques and a set of electives that may be taken from within or outside of the Programme. Students are expected to have an adequate background in Mathematics, Nuclear Physics and Heat Transfer.
Admissions are offered in July for M.Tech./Ph.D programme and in December for only for Ph.D. programme. Selected candidates are called for interview and/or written test.
