The Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU) is one of the biggest
and oldest technical universities in
Europe. CTU currently has eight faculties and about 18,000 students.
The Faculty of Nuclear Sciences and Physical Engineering (FNSPE) was
established in 1955, and at that time its primary mission was to train new
experts with a strong theoretical background for the emerging Czechoslovak
nuclear programme. Gradually, however, its responsibilities were extended to
cover a wider scope of fields and courses in mathematics, physics and
chemistry so that, in keeping with its tradition, it can now offer excellent
education with a personal approach to students' tuition. Faculty provides
courses in the branch of nuclear engineering - focused on
theoretical and experimental reactor physics, neutron applications, nuclear
reactor operation and engineering. The Faculty operates Training reactor
VR-1, lightwater zero power fission reactor, and also fusion reactor Golem.

The Budapest University of Technology and Economics is one of the
leading V4
universities in the field of nuclear engineering and use of nuclear energy
has long tradition in Hungary. The Faculty of Natural Sciences operates pool
type water
cooled reactor. The Training Reactor, which started operation in 1971 and
has 100 kW nominal thermal power, is the scene of numerous reactor and
radiation related exercises for undergraduate and graduate students and
serves as a neutron and gamma radiation source for research.
The staff of the Faculty has different types of qualifications as
Independent Technical Experts in the Nuclear Field from the Hungarian
Chamber of Engineers, such as reactor physics, thermal-hydraulics,
mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, radiation protection,
proliferation resistance and transport of radioactive and nuclear material.

The University of Warsaw is the best university in Poland and one of
the
leading ones in this region of Europe, where app. 45,000 people
study. The candidates are offered a very
broad range of courses in the fields of humanities, social sciences and
natural sciences.
The Faculty of Physics is a large research and teaching center. It consists
of The Institutes of Theoretical Physics, Experimental Physics, Geophysics,
The Astronomical Observatory and The Department of Mathematical Methods in
Physics. The Faculty is regarded as one of the best in the country,
recognized
internationally for the high quality of research and education. Nuclear
Energy and Chemistry is a field of study provided jointly by the Faculty of
Physics and the Faculty of Chemistry since 2011. As
a response to the government plan of construction of nuclear power plants in
Poland, the main goal of this field of study was to educate specialists and
scientists who will be participating in nuclear power development program. A
new two-years master’s program on Reactor Physics is curently
being developed at the Faculty of Physics.

The Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava (STU) is a modern
educational and scientific institution. According to the Slovak higher
education ranking scheme, STU has been the best university in chemicals
technologies, computer and technical sciences in the long term. STU offers
education in technical fields and involves students in research in natural
sciences, computer sciences, construction, architecture, materials
technologies, chemistry and food technologies. STU provides 3 level
education (bachelor, master and PhD.) at all 7 faculties. Since its
foundation in 1937 more than 145.000 students have graduated. In average,
17.000 students study at the STU every year.
The Institute of Nuclear and Physical Engineering (INPE) is one of the 10
institutes working as a part of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and
Information Technology (FEI). It is responsible for university education in
the area of nuclear and physical engineering. Through education, scientific,
research and development activities, INPE is active in the fields of:
General Physics, Mathematical Physics, Physics of Condensed Matter and
Acoustics, Nuclear and Sub-nuclear Physics, Material Science, Environmental
Engineering, Electro-technology and Materials, Nuclear Power Engineering and
Technology, Biomedical Engineering, and Physical Engineering.
