ANS aims to engage the general public in the conversation about nuclear. By organizing active outreach and public education events throughout the country, our members can enhance our mission with a unified voice.
What we support
ANS brings together a state-of-the-art curriculum, Navigating Nuclear, some of the country's most qualified nuclear experts, and a suite of virtual and in-person experiences to drive a national expansion of K-12 nuclear science and technology education.
Engineers Week (fourth week of February) is a time to celebrate how engineers make a difference in our world, Increase public dialogue about the need for engineers, and bring engineering to life for kids, educators, and parents.
Nuclear Science Week (NSW, third week of October) is an international, broadly observed week-long celebration to focus interest on all aspects of nuclear science. ANS has partnered with the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History to promote this important initiative.
