Brigham Young University
ABSTRACT The ANS BYU student section formation, membership statistics, and activity summaries for the 2015-16 school year Paul Wilding SAMUEL GLASSTONE REPORT 2015-2016 American Nuclear Society – Brigham Young University INTRODUCTION Almost two years ago, Dr. Matthew Memmott, who received a PhD in Nuclear Engineering from MIT, left Westinghouse to become a professor of Chemical Engineering at Brigham Young University (BYU). There had not been any nuclear research performed at BYU since the 1970’s. With his arrival came a remarkable influx of student involvement in nuclear research and enrollment in the elective course, “Introduction to Nuclear Engineering.” There may not currently be a nuclear engineering major at BYU, but Dr. Memmott hopes to develop it soon as an emphasis or a minor. During the summer of 2015, we began our own student section of ANS, appointed leaders, and started recruiting members. We organized and went on two tours, and by the end of the summer, we had reached a size of 35 members! Our section continued to grow as we made our presence known on campus and educated our fellow students on the advantages of nuclear science/energy. We received our official student section charter in October 2015. MEMBERSHIP STATISTICS By the end of the 2015-16 academic year, these were our membership statistics: Total ANS BYU Student Section Membership 79 Total National ANS Membership 22 Students Enrolled in “Intro. to Nuclear Engineering” 40 Graduates Going into Nuclear Industry 1 Graduates Doing Graduate School in Nuclear Engineering 6 ACTIVITY SUMMARIES Tour of Energy Solutions in Clive, UT – On July 14, twenty-five student members went to tour the largest privately-owned nuclear waste facility in the United States. -

Nuclear power is one of the major low carbon energy sources that many developing countries hope to de- pend on in the future. Ensuring the safety and efficiency of nuclear power generation is vital to the economic performance of many countries and their citizens. Efficiency and safety of this technology depends on many factors. One of the crucial safety and efficiency factors of nuclear power generation is the performance of the pro- curement market in which parts, components, and services to build and operate nuclear power plants are traded. In particular, perfor- mance of the market in which safety related parts and components are traded is crucial to the efficiency and safety of nuclear power generation. Despite the importance of the procurement market for nuclear power generation, there have been few economic studies on this issue. -

Historically, the University of Florida has been home to one of the outstanding Nuclear Engineering programs, and ANS Student Sections, in the country. As we emerge from a recent administrative reorganization, the Nuclear Engineering Program recognizes the key role our flagship student society has in the revitalization of Nuclear Engineering at the University of Florida. The 2012-13 academic year represented a major step forward in UF-ANS activities, as detailed in the attached report. Key activities this year included: • Launching an ANS General Body Retreat, a flagship social event in early Fall. • Facilitating the attendance of 19 UF students at the ANS Winter Meeting and 14 UF students at the ANS Student Conference (including 13 presenters and 2 award winners). • Hosting numerous information/recruitment sessions with the nuclear industry and federal agencies, including AREVA, GE-Hitachi, Westinghouse, the Nuclear Navy, Southern Company, PNNL, and the NRC. • Creating a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the University of Florida chapter of Women in Nuclear to ensure smooth cooperation between the two student groups.
