Abstract: Slovak University of Technology is the largest and also the oldest university of technology in Slovakia. It is certain that more than 50% of the highly-educated technicians who are currently working in the nuclear industry have graduated from this university. The Department of Nuclear Physics and Technology of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology as one of the seven faculties of this University feels the responsibility to impart proper engineering education and training for Slovak NPP operating staff. The education process is realised via undergraduate (BSc), graduate (MSc) and postgraduate (PhD) study as well as via specialised training courses within the framework of a continuous education system.

Keywords: graduate study; postgraduate study; nuclear education; training; continuous engineering education; Slovakia; knowledge management; nuclear knowledge; nuclear power; nuclear energy; nuclear science; nuclear technology; higher education; universities.
