Nuclear Security Science and Technology Consortium (NSSTC) at UNLV

Creating the next generation of world-class STEM workforce.

About the NSSTC

The Nuclear Security Science and Technology Consortium (NSSTC) at UNLV is a consortium-based team funded by the National Nuclear Security Administration through the Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program (MSIPP). The goal of the consortium is to create and support a sustainable career pathway that prepares talented students to make immediate and significant contribution to the Nuclear Security Enterprise (NSE).

Nuclear science and engineering experts at University of Nevada, Las Vegas, University of Illinois at Chicago, University of New Mexico, Nevada National Security Sites, Los Alamos National Laboratory, and Argonne National Laboratory have partnered to address overarching themes within the topical research area of nuclear security. The NSSTC provides students with practical experience and training through research projects and experiential learning.
