Notă biografică

Dr. Nicholas Tsoulfanidis spent most of his professional career at the University of Missouri-Rolla, now Missouri University of Science & Technology, having served as a faculty member, Chairman of the Department, Interim Vice Chancellor for academic Affairs, and Associate Dean of the School of Mines and Metallurgy for Graduate Studies and Research. In addition to his teaching and administrative duties he performed research in the areas of radiation transport, radiation protection/health physics, and the Nuclear Fuel Cycle. He has written numerous technical papers and two textbooks: “Measurement and Detection of Radiation," co-authored by Dr. S. Landsberger, now in its 4th Edition, and “The Nuclear Fuel cycle" 3rd Edition (2013).
He has received many awards, the most prominent being the Glenn Murphy Award (1995) given by the American Society for Engineering Education [ASEE] for “Outstanding contributions in the profession and teaching of Nuclear Engineering,” the Ted Rockwell Award, Radiation Protection & Shielding Division (2010), and the Arthur H. Compton Award (ANS, 2013). He is a Fellow of ANS.During the period 1997-2015, he served as Editor of Nuclear Technology, an international technical Journal published by the American Nuclear Society. At present he is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Chemical and Materials Eng. at the University of Nevada-Reno, where he teaches nuclear-related courses in the Nuclear Materials Emphasis program.
