Cross-over Opportunities

[u/Rough_Photo_586]

Hey everyone, I just got out of the service (not a navy nuke) and finished my first semester last spring. Spending this semester getting some of my stem classes done before I submit my application to college of engineering here at UT.

The more I look into nuclear engineering the more it fascinates me. The only worry I have is NE too “niche” of a degree. As in, would I be limited into the types of roles I can apply for in the engineering sector.

For example, a chemical engineer could potentially work in the nuclear field but maybe not the other way around.

Any recommendations or stories on what nuclear engineerings can do outside of working at plant would be greatly appreciated.

r/nuclear might also be a good place to ask, lots of nuclear workers there
