This summer, some of our Engineering Physics students gained firsthand experience at Canadian Nuclear Laboratories’ Chalk River Laboratories alongside other students from McMaster.
These experiences give students the opportunity to learn directly from nuclear professionals, explore specialized facilities and discover the many career paths available in Canada’s growing nuclear sector.
Read the full story through the link in our bio.
This summer Engineering Physics student Logan McCready worked with one of our EngPhys Professors, Dr. Mike Welland at McMaster and Georges Karagozian, a McMaster alumnus and research and development scientist at Canadian Nuclear Laboratories.
Together they explored how machine learning could help analyze inspection data from nuclear reactor steam-generator tubes.
Logan’s model aims to characterize and predict flaws from eddy current signals, potentially making inspections faster, more accurate and less prone to human error.
Engineering Physics student Andrea Srouji is completing a co-op placement at Canadian Nuclear Laboratories in the Inspection and Monitoring Technologies branch, she is also working with CNL scientist Georges Karagozian.
At Chalk River Laboratories, Andrea has gained firsthand exposure to specialized facilities and nuclear technologies while learning directly from professionals in the field.
