The Nuclear Energy Futures CDT receives considerable cash and in-kind support from leading organisations in the nuclear energy sector. Based in the UK and across the world, they sponsor projects, provide access to their facilities, host field trips or advise on strategy.

They recognise the long-term benefit in supporting the teaching, research and cohort-building activities the CDT offers students in promoting the next generation of leaders.  We would like to thank them for their continued support and encouragement.
