2023 ETI 101 kicked off —- join us!
We are excited to announce our 3d offering of ETI 101, our introductory course on fundamentals of nuclear engineering for nonproliferation. Please register here join us. We have excellent speakers and demonstrations by experts from national laboratories and academia! There is no cost to participate this program. Come join us!
The course kicked off both synchronously and asynchronously on January 10, 2023. Weekly synchronous online lectures are every Tuesday and Thursday at 11:10 Eastern Time.
ETI 101 topics:
- Nuclear Science of Radiation Interactions
- Nuclear Engineering of Reactors and Systems
- Nuclear Fuel Cycle and Waste Management
- Nexus of Technology and Policy
- Overview of Nuclear security and Nonproliferation
2023 ETI Workshop is upcoming!
ETI consortium will host its Annual Workshop at University of Wisconsin-Madison on February 8-9, 2023. Participants representing university partners, national laboratories, and the government will join together to build and strengthen the research collaboration between the labs and the universities. This workshop will open with welcome remarks, keynote presentations, followed by technical talks, poster presentations, as well as recruitment session, and lab tour. This event is primarily in-person with hybrid option available for select participants.
Event Venue: Discovery Building, 330 N Orchard St, Madison, WI, 53715.
ETI Lab Day
ETI was pleased to host a virtual “ETI Lab Day” on December 20, 2022. ETI collaborators from twelve national labs gave brief overviews, and then discussed in more details about the internship or job opportunities during the Live Q&A session in the virtual breakout rooms. Detailed flyers, videos, and opportunities documents from each national lab are available in the ETI Google Drive.
2022 ETI Graduate Workshop is successfully concluded!
ETI hosted a How to Apply to Graduate School Workshop event that presents opportunities in non-proliferation R&D on November 18-19 (Friday and Saturday), 2022, at the Georgia Tech Hotel & Conference Center, 800 Spring Street NW, Atlanta, GA. Our aim is to host this event for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) engineering students, and the goal is to draw more diversity into our partner institutions.
The workshop includes:
- Best practices in applying to graduate school
- Tips on getting funding while a graduate student
- Tours of GA Tech laboratory facilities
- Graduate research opportunities at consortium partners
- Networking with faculty and students from leading research universities
- Diverse career opportunities in non-proliferation R&D
2022 ETI Newsletter
Thank you for your contribution to the team, which will hopefully thrive beyond the ETI lifespan, and look forward to the continuation of this fruitful and stimulating collaboration!
Innovation is exploration of uncertain and unfamiliar space. In ETI consortium, we place a special emphasis on innovation through our research, education of the next generation of scientists, and broad outreach activities. Reflecting on the achievements of the past year in ETI consortium, this newsletter highlights a combination of creativity, resourcefulness, and discipline leading the success of various initiatives.

2022 ETI Workshop is successfully concluded!
ETI successfully hosted its Annual Workshop on March 29 – 30, 2022 in a hybrid format at the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) and via BlueJeans. This workshop opened with welcome remarks, keynote presentations, followed by technical talks, poster presentations, as well as recruitment session, and lab tour. More details are available here.
The core mission of the Consortium for Enabling Technologies and Innovation (ETI) is to direct the multidisciplinary research and innovation that enable the technologies to train the next-generation of human capital, and to bridge the gap between the university basic research and NNSA national laboratories’ mission-specific applications. The ETI Consortium is composed of 14 institutions of higher education and 12 national laboratories committed to promoting the spirit of collaborative intelligence.
Overall Goals
The overarching goal of this Consortium is to create a research and education environment to support cross-cutting technologies across three core disciplines: the umbrella of (1) computer and engineering science research specifically in a form of machine learning and high performance computing (HPC) will support and enhance (2) advanced manufacturing and (3) nuclear detection technologies.
We are looking to employ predictive strategies to enhance our understanding of tomorrow’s needs in nuclear nonproliferation. The core of the research expenditures is directed at student education and support in order to grow the next generation of nonproliferation scientists with strong connections to national laboratories.
