<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">What are the myriad of uses of radiation sources? How do we control their uses to protect workers? In this discovery subject, students will be introduced to the basics of ionizing and non-ionizing
radiation, radiation safety and protection and an overview of the variety of health physics applications especially as it pertains to the medical field and to radioactive materials research in academia. This class will cover the basic physics of ionizing and
non-ionizing radiation, known effects on the human body and the techniques to measure those effects. This class will introduce common radiation-based medical imaging techniques and therapies. Students will engage in a variety of hands-on projects, demonstrations
and experiments that will introduce them to standard techniques and practices in typical medical and MIT research lab environments where radiation is used. This is a great class to take if you are currently doing in medical, biological, or nuclear areas at
MIT, or if you are interested in later doing a UROP, Co-Op or Internship that will involve working with radiation sources and detectors. The course is geared toward undergraduates as an introduction to how radiation sources and radioactivity are used by researchers
in most majors at MIT.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">In this course, freshman and sophomore students have an opportunity to explore both machine learning (ML) techniques and nuclear science and engineering in an interesting
and applied form. Students learn how to apply most popular ML methods to analyze real-world applications relevant to nuclear scientists and engineers in the areas of nuclear fission, fusion, security, and radiology (Health Physics). You will use ML to optimize
the fuel inside nuclear fission reactors, to build surrogate models to simulate nuclear fusion reactors, to process signals from nuclear detectors to identify special nuclear materials, and to detect cancer tumors in patients. The course includes two lectures
per week. The first lecture emphasizes the theory and methodology of a machine learning topic. The second lecture is a lab session where students practice and complete programming exercises related to that machine learning topic. Lab exercises are designed
to promote active learning, high-level thinking, and basic problem-solving skills, and can be completed within the lab session virtually using a computing cloud. In addition to the physics knowledge about nuclear science and engineering, this course is a pure
computational/programming course, designed to teach students practical ML techniques to build data science skills helpful for their tenure in college of engineering and computing.</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
