International Nuclear Security Education Network (INSEN) Workshop
The Centre for Science and Security (CSSS) in partnership with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and its International Nu-clear Security Educational Network (INSEN) will hold a Professional Development Course on Nuclear Security Education in 2012, which will consist of two workshop sessions and distance learning via the IAEA Learning Management System.The course is modelled on the ‘NS1 Introduction to Nuclear Security’ module from the IAEA No 12 Educational Programme in Nuclear Se-curity. The course is intended for faculty members from universities and research institutions planning to launch educational courses in nuclear security.
Subsistence and travel costs for participants will be covered by the IAEA.
About the CSSSCSSS is a multi-disciplinary research group which brings to-gether scientific experts with specialists in politics, inter-national relations and history. CSSS conduct scholarly and policy-relevant research on weapons proliferation, non-proliferation, verification and disarmament and mass effect terrorism including the CBRN and runs two MA programmes ‘Science and Security Studies’ and ‘Non-Proliferation and In-ternational Security
