Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'This aim of the FUSENET project is the establishment of a European Fusion Education Network (FUSENET) for education in fusion science and technology, as part of a comprehensive package of coordination actions, in order to increase, enhance, and broaden fusion training and education activities in Europe. The project consists of eleven focused work packages, with a total proposed budget of 2,000,000 €. The project brings together a broad representation of the European fusion community with 36 participants from 18 countries, of which 22 Universities and 14 Euratom Associations. The project consists of four groups of coordination actions: the establishment and running of the FUSENET network; development of individual learning opportunities and common educational goals; development of educational materials and hands-on experiments; and funding of joint educational activities. The FUSENET project will cover all education levels, from secondary school through Bachelor and Master level, to PhD. The actions of FUSENET build upon the already strongly coordinated European Fusion Research programme, coor-dinated under the European Fusion Development Agreement EFDA. The network will be given a permanent identity by the establishment of the FUSENET Association, which will provide a platform for the coordination of existing actions, the initiation, development and implementation of new EU-wide actions, and for the exchange and dissemination of fusion education information. The envisioned concrete end result of the FUSENET project is an integrated fusion education system in Europe, with strong links between fusion institutes and higher education institutes. Through a central website, the pro-gramme will offer a transparent structure of coherent educational actions, accessible and inviting, in which stu-dents and teachers can easily find their way to a variety of attractive ways to participate in the fusion research programme.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
An ambitious research project brought together 18 countries to establish an EU network supporting nuclear fusion education. The FuseNet Association attracts students from high school through to the doctoral level.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Nuclear energy is a clean, safe and sustainable way to meet the world's growing energy needs. Currently, most of the world's nuclear power plants rely on nuclear fission. Now, China, the EU, India, Japan, Korea, Russia and the United States have come together to prove the viability of fusion as an energy source. The project International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) is slated to realise an operational nuclear fusion plant in just 10 years.
This new era of nuclear energy will require a new generation of scientists trained in nuclear fusion. The EU-funded project 'FUSENET - The European fusion education network' (http://www.fusenet.eu/ (FUSENET)) successfully developed an active and sustainable collaboration to achieve this, now represented by the legal entity The FuseNet Association. The Association boasts over 40 fee-paying members, including industries, universities and research institutes all over Europe. Membership is also open to non-European organisations.
The mission of FuseNet is to stimulate and coordinate fusion education in Europe. This is done by attracting motivated students, providing them with excellent training, and fostering mobility through exchanges, internships and job opportunities. Unlike many programmes that focus on graduate-level studies, FUSENET starts in high school.
Project members have supported and organised joint educational activities such as workshops, summer schools and the annual PhD event. FUSENET also developed educational tools such as hands-on laboratories, virtual reality tools, web-based course material and a book on fusion technology. Week-long Master's-level classes were an additional outcome and project activities contributed to the establishment of joint academic criteria for awarding Master's and Doctoral degrees.
The project website provides a portal to all fusion education in Europe. It offers educational materials and activities organised by educational level. It also presents fusion news, various FUSENET activities and learning opportunities.
In conclusion, FUSENET has successfully developed an active European network that has boosted the quality of fusion education throughout Europe. The FuseNet Association will ensure that the legacy lives on, bolstering nuclear fusion know-how for a leading European position in an emerging new energy sector.
