Over the past 60 years, the School of Nuclear Engineering has mentored an amazing group of students who have gone on to do great things. Please join us in congratulating these two alumni on their impressive achievements.

Mitchell Hemesath from the School of Nuclear Engineering attended the 27th International Conference on Nuclear Engineering (ICONE). Hemesath submitted a paper and poster on the “Qualification of tensioned metastable fluid detectors for spectroscopic radon & progeny detection under range of environmental conditions.” Of all the students presenting their posters, Hemesath’s was selected as the ICONE27 Student Best Poster. Congratulations Mitchell!
