Abstract

The European Nuclear Education Network (ENEN) Association, a non-profit organization established in 2003 under the French law, has as its main objective the preservation and further development of expertise in the nuclear fields by higher education and training. In the last September, the Association celebrated its 10th Birthday, coming at the end of a very active decade in which major achievements were reached and ENEN grew from the initial number of 22 Members to the present 64. The paper summarises these achievements, obtained by efforts spent in order to harmonise and promote mutual recognition of MSc courses, PhD activities and training in nuclear matters throughout Europe. The establishment of the European Master of Science in Nuclear Engineering certification, the yearly PhD Events, the promotion of courses in nuclear matters at different levels, the extension of the range of action of the Association beyond the European borders represent some of the relevant results achieved so far, in the frame of the several EU Projects in which ENEN participated and as autonomous developments. General conclusions about the present status of the Association and its future perspectives are finally drawn.
