CEN)<br />

The Belgium Nuclear Research Centre SCK-CEN is a public utility establishment with a legal<br />

statute according to private law. SCK-CEN is the owner <strong>of</strong> the assets, built up by its activities or<br />

acquired by funding from the public authorities SCK-CEN has no shareholders.<br />

With a staff <strong>of</strong> 600, the Centre has a lot <strong>of</strong> R&D activities <strong>of</strong> high relevance for nuclear engineering<br />

education:<br />

• the VENUS facility for experiments <strong>of</strong> reactor physics with new types <strong>of</strong> fuel<br />

• the operation <strong>of</strong> the BR2 reactor for testing materials<br />

• the MYRRHA project, a small accelerator driven system<br />

• EURIDICE, the first European underground laboratory to study the long term storage <strong>of</strong> high<br />

activity level waste in clay<br />

• The dismantling <strong>of</strong> the BR3 reactor, the first PWR built in Europe and also the first PWR to<br />

be dismantling in Europe<br />

• The radiation protection and safeguards division covering radiobiology, radioecology,<br />

nuclear measurements and assessments and decision methodologies<br />

• Research projects on the interaction between Science-technology and Society.<br />

Peter Paul De Regge obtained a PhD at the State University <strong>of</strong> Gent, Belgium with a Doctoral<br />

Thesis on the Study <strong>of</strong> (n,p), (n, α) en (n, 2n) reactions in a fission neutron flux spectrum in 1970. He<br />

has been in charge for more than 20 years <strong>of</strong> planning, managing, co-ordinating and supervising<br />

scientific services and research activities at the Nuclear Research Centre SCK·CEN in Mol,<br />

Belgium. The department <strong>of</strong> Nuclear Chemistry and Services, which he has been leading for more<br />

than 10 years, has long-term commitments to provide analytical and radiochemical services to the<br />

Belgian nuclear industry, to the power plant operators and to the Belgian authorities. From 1997 to<br />

2004, he joined the International Atomic Energy Agency in the capacity <strong>of</strong> Head <strong>of</strong> the Agency’s<br />

Physics, Chemistry and Instrumentation Laboratory in Seibersdorf. Starting in May 2004, Peter Paul<br />

De Regge is serving the European Nuclear Education Network <strong>Association</strong> in the capacity <strong>of</strong><br />

Secretary General. He was co-coordinator <strong>of</strong> the FP6 NEPTUNO project and is the focal point for<br />

the participation <strong>of</strong> fifteen European universities in the FP6 project IP EUROTRANS.<br />

Partner 26 University <strong>of</strong> Ljubljana (UL)<br />

The University <strong>of</strong> Ljubljana is an institution with a very rich tradition. With its 56,000 undergraduate<br />

and post-graduate students participating in more than 130 undergraduate and 110 post-graduate<br />

programs, it ranks among the biggest universities in the world scale. A total <strong>of</strong> 20 faculties, 3 art<br />

academies and 3 university colleges employ approx. 1,700 full- time university teaching staff,<br />

assisted by nearly 600 technical and administrative staff.<br />
