![]() ![]() Note that the lowest (10th %ile) wage shown is not necessarily a "starting wage." Instead it means that 10 percent of all workers in this career earn less that this amount, and 90 percent earn more. The Graph shows you wages at the 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th and 90th percentiles.You can select from three views of this data: This chart shows you a range of how much most workers in this occupation earn per hour, in the location that you selected. Note this information is only available at a national level, so even if you selected a state, you’ll see this information for the whole country. This information comes from O*NET Bright Outlook occupations and My Next Move career outlook designations (based on Bureau of Labor Statistics Employment Projections 2020-30). This can help you see if local businesses are hiring-another way of looking at demand. You can also view local job listings in this field by clicking "Find job openings". A Below Average outlook means new job opportunities are less likely in the future.An Average outlook means that a small number of new job opportunities are likely in the future (less than an 8 percent increase).A Bright outlook means new job opportunities are very likely in the future.When new outlook information is developed, it will be reflected here. ![]() Many occupations are likely to have very different outlooks due to the rapidly changing economy. Please note that this does not account for the impacts of the current pandemic. Outlook information can tell you whether a career is expected to be in demand in the future-that is, whether there are likely to be job openings if you choose this career. Nuclear engineers carry a large responsibility to safely manage a resource many people have come to depend on. A bachelor’s degree in nuclear engineering is the typical entry-level requirement for this field some positions require a master’s degree or Ph.D. They sometimes collaborate with other kinds of engineers to improve each other’s system designs. The majority of nuclear engineers work full-time for public utilities or engineering consulting firms. Their job doesn’t stop after designing cutting-edge new technology- they oversee operations and maintenance, and issue immediate emergency shutdowns if there are malfunctions. So nuclear engineers in power plants develop safety practices, and ensure that nuclear waste is disposed of with care. The resources used in nuclear power generate potentially dangerous radioactivity. Many of these engineers work with nuclear reactors, the source of energy for power plants to provide heat and electricity to many homes and businesses. Nuclear engineers develop a variety of applications for nuclear energy, including diagnosing and treating illnesses… and in systems to power ships and spacecraft. They search for efficient ways to capture the energy from disintegrating atoms, or from the fusion of atoms, and put it to use. Harnessing that energy is the work of nuclear engineers. Tremendous energy is trapped in the nucleus of a tiny atom. ![]()
