Advisory Committee

The College of Engineering at UT Arlington has a strong and supportive Advisory Board.   It is standard practice for programs within the College to have their own advisory boards to serve to connect the program leadership with needs of its constituents.   In that spirit, an Advisory Committee is being established for the Nuclear Engineering minor.   Its main objective will be to allow us to tailor the program completely to nuclear industry practices.

Members of the advisory committee identified and committed at this time are:

  • Dr. Gerald Schlapper, Ph.D., PE, CHP
    High Level Waste Inspector, Region IV, U.S. NRC
  • Dr. Sheldon Landsberger
    Coordinator, Nuclear and Radiation Engineering Program,

  • Mike Blevins Executive
    Vice President and Chief Nuclear Officer, Luminant Power
  • Chris Davenport P.E.
