The field of nuclear reactor design is currently undergoing a paradigm shift, moving from large-scale traditional light-water reactors toward advanced generation IV systems and small modular reactors (SMRs). An advanced course in this discipline bridges the gap between fundamental nuclear physics and complex engineering implementation. ⚛️ Core Objectives
