TNIBF recently awarded a community grant to Constructionarium to support their ‘Nuclear Island’ event.
A group of engineering and construction students from the University of East London
Gained skills critical for the future development of nuclear
infrastructure. The students constructed a scaled replica of a nuclear power station,
mirroring the complex safety, logistical, and sequencing demands found in projects like
the upcoming Sizewell C nuclear power station.
Julia Stevens, Chief Executive of Constructionarium, said:
“With Government’s recent announcement about investment to build the new
Sizewell C nuclear plant in Suffolk and national focus sharpening on energy
security and low-carbon generation, Constructionarium is helping to address the
skills shortage by equipping students and early careers employees with the skills
they need to become our future infrastructure professionals. Our immersive
approach and the scale of our projects creates a learning environment that is
truly unique in the world.”
Sam Knight, Manager, TNIBF said
“This was the first community grant that we have awarded so we are thrilled that the event was a huge success. We are proud to be supporting the future of the UK nuclear industry”
