Overview
The main objective of the Belgian Nuclear Research Centre is to maintain a centre of excellence for research on nuclear science and technology and ionising radiation.

■Conduct research with regard to social implications within the scope of the pursuit of sustainable development.
■Develop, gather and spread the necessary knowledge through education and communication.
■Provide all services asked for in the domain concerned, in particular by the nuclear industry, the medical sector and the gouvernment.
■Make the necessary pluridisciplinary scientific contacts concerning the energy problem.
Develop your career in nuclear research!
In a conscious desire to increase its pool of highly specialised young researchers and to tighten the links with the universities, SCK•CEN embarked in 1992 on a programme to support PhD candidates and post-doctoral researchers.
Since 1992, over 100 students started a PhD in collaboration with SCK•CEN and more than 50 post-docs joined our Centre. Currently, about 50 junior scientific researchers perform their work in research fields that reflect the priority programmes and R&D topics of SCK•CEN.
