There’s more to nuclear energy than electricity. Nuclear power plant owners, as well as nuclear technology and services providers such as Westinghouse, are keen on exploring the full potential of nuclear energy to address the challenges of energy security and the climate crisis.
Throughout its history, Alaska has been known as a land of boundless possibilities, adventure, exploration, natural resources and, of course, a strong cultural heritage tied to the indigenous communities who have called this land home for centuries.
To that end, Westinghouse is again sponsoring an international internship program for students in countries that are developing new nuclear energy programs, or strengthening the programs they already have with our AP1000® reactor, the most advanced Gen III+ nuclear technology available today.

Bringing advanced nuclear technology to communities that need clean, reliable electricity doesn’t just happen. The process involves research and development in the lab as well as interactions with the technology’s licensing authority, in this case the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Those interactions are vital to receiving design certification and an operating license—the ultimate goal.
