A new Brazilian center of education and training is in the process of being organized as a joint enterprise of the University of Brazil and Brazil’s Nuclear Energy Commission. To be known as the Institute of Nuclear Engineering, the school will be located on the Atlantic coast, a few miles south of Copacabana, and will be staffed with technical personnel from the principal educational centers in Rio de Janeiro. Although the Institute will be under the broad supervision of the Nuclear Energy Commission, it will be guided by a Technical and Scientific Council of five members, including representatives of the University of Brazil and the National School of Engineering.
