The MIT-NRL maintains a successful public outreach program through which we help to:

• Encourage understanding of nuclear energy and its applications
• Clarify misconceptions about nuclear energy
• Provide medical isotopes to local hospitals
• Assist students with science fair projects
• Provide a web-enabled neutron time-of-flight experimental facility
• Assist in graduate research projects and theses
• Provide sample irradiation and neutron activation analyses (NAA)
• Provide hands-on training to students and utility executives
• Encourage young people to pursue a career in the nuclear industry
