Texas A&M University has embarked on a project to incorporate nuclear technology into its infrastructure by partnering with four prominent companies.
The collaboration focuses on constructing Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) at the RELLIS Campus in Bryan-College Station.
The initiative is part of a broader effort by Texas A&M to enhance its research capabilities and provide cutting-edge educational opportunities in the field of nuclear engineering. By working with industry leaders, the university aims to spearhead innovations and ensure the practical application of academic research.
The RELLIS Campus, already a site of significant development, will serve as the base for this pioneering project. The campus’s infrastructure and resources make it an ideal location for testing and implementing these advanced nuclear technologies. This initiative is expected to bolster the local economy, create jobs, and position Texas A&M as a forward-thinking institution in the energy sector.
Building SMRs at RELLIS signals a commitment to renewable energy solutions and illustrates Texas A&M’s leadership in pursuing sustainable technologies. The project is aligned with global trends to reduce carbon emissions and transition to cleaner energy sources. As this venture progresses, it will serve as a model for integrating nuclear power with educational and economic development.
