Nuclear Packaging Graduate Program Courses
This page lists the twenty-nine courses that count toward the (GCNP) and the (GCTSS), and divides them into categories and subcategories. For each class, the list indicates the course number, name, units, and host institution.
Courses offered by DOE Packaging University
All twenty-one Packaging University courses are taught in-person by subject matter experts at the following DOE national laboratories or other authorized locations: Argonne (ANL), Lawrence Livermore (LLNL), Los Alamos (LANL), Oak Ridge (ORNL), Pacific Northwest (PNNL), Sandia (SNL) and Savannah River (SRNL). The provides national laboratory enrollment/fee and schedule information for upcoming classes.
