DNN’s enabling capabilities in technology (TECH) consortium is being formed to create new scientific knowledge in areas critical to DNN’s nuclear nonproliferation mission,

to apply new knowledge toward the creation of new nuclear nonproliferation capabilities,

and to generate the human capital needed for the DOE/NNSA laboratories to address emerging challenges in nuclear nonproliferation.

University Of Tennessee

THE DIRECT OUTCOME OF THIS PROGRAM IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF A DIVERSE AND HIGHLY TALENTED CADRE OF PROFESSIONALS WITH SKILL SETS TO SUPPORT CRITICAL NONPROLIFERATION MISSIONS IN EARLY PROLIFERATION DETECTION, NUCLEAR SECURITY, AND CROSS CUTTING AREAS OUTLINED IN THE TECHNICAL SCOPE BELOW. THESE PROFESSIONALS WILL HAVE CAREERS AS SCIENTISTS, ENGINEERS, TECHNICIANS, OPERATIONAL PERSONNEL, AND INTELLIGENCE PROFESSIONALS, AMONG OTHERS, AND WILL BE LEADERS IN NUCLEAR NONPROLIFERATION, NUCLEAR ARMS CONTROL, NUCLEAR INCIDENT RESPONSE, NUCLEAR INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES, NUCLEAR ENERGY, AND OTHER NUCLEAR-RELATED FIELDS. THESE PROFESSIONALS ARE EXPECTED TO BENEFIT ACADEMIA, PRIVATE INDUSTRY, AND SEVERAL U.S. GOVERNMENT AGENCIES, INCLUDING ENERGY, STATE, DEFENSE, HOMELAND SECURITY, JUSTICE, AND THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY.
