On other days, the director of the international atomic energy agency IAEA is mostly busy managing the crisis surrounding the occupied Ukrainian nuclear power plant in Zaporizja. But on Wednesday afternoon, 24 April, Rafael Grossi will visit the TU Delft.
The purpose of his visit is twofold: to reduce the female shortage in the nuclear industry and to encourage students to consider a career in the nuclear industry. Grossi is coming to TU Delft because it is the only Dutch educational institution with its own research reactor. Applications are in healthcare, materials science and energy supply.
Grossi will start at 15:15 with a lecture on nuclear safety, politics, international developments and gender issues. Afterwards, there will be ample opportunity to ask questions, especially for students interested in a career in the nuclear sector. Several nuclear organisations will be present in the periphery of the lecture. The event will last until 17:00 and will take place in the Aula.
