The objectives of the Nuclear Engineering undergraduate program are to produce graduates who are capable of:​

1. Apply and build on their knowledge to achieve furtherance and satisfaction in their chosen career or profession and to pursue post-graduate studies in disciplines related, but not limited, to nuclear engineering.
2. Conduct themselves with top-level professional and ethical standards undertaking risk management, security, safety, environmental and economic challenges to help meet the manpower needs of our country, region, and international community.
3. Engage in life-long learning and keep abreast of new developments in nuclear engineering through fruitful utilization of national current and future nuclear facilities, professional development and continuous education.
4. Employ their analytical and communication skills to demonstrate solid leadership, innovate solutions, and work under pressure effectively within multi-disciplinary teams.

To achieve its key objectives, the Nuclear Engineering program is designed to ensure that our graduating students achieve the following outcomes:​

1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. ​An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies​.
