Criteria laid down by the jury.

The BNEN Prog. has a limited capacity of enrollment, as lab sessions are organized at the premises of the SCK-CEN research center, using its experimental facilities. Consequently, all admissions are conditional and subject to a decision by the BNEN Steering Committee. Admission to the BNEN Prog. can be considered for the following cases :-The holders of an acad. deg. of "MA en sc. de l'ingénieur, or. Ingénieur civil" (CfB*) or an acad. deg. of « MA of sc. in de ingenieurswetenschappen (burgelijke ingenieur)" (VGB)*, given a sufficient scientific/technical background, whereby the BNEN Steering Committee may impose additional background courses (max. 15 ECTS), taking into account the contents of the curriculum already completeted;-the holders of an acad. deg. similar to those mentioned above (and considered equivalent), under the same conditions;- The holders of an acad. deg. similar to those mentioned above, delivered by the Royal Military School, under the same conditions.- the holders of an acad. deg. of "MA en sc. industrielles ou de MA en sc. de l'ingénieur industriel" (CfB*) or an acad. deg. of "MA in de industriële wetenschappen, industrieel ingenieur" (VGB), whereby the BNEN Steering Committee will impose an additional set of background courses (max. 60 ECTS), taking into account the contents of the curriculum already completed, and whereby previously relevant background courses may be valorized en accepted for credit transfer; If the student registers in an institution of the "CfB*", these additional credits are then part of the « MS*» the student will enroll in and they are a prerequisite for the regular BNEN Prog. of 60 ECTS. If the student registers in an institution of the "VGB*", these additional credits are part of a preparatory "make up" Prog. before possibly being admitted to the BNEN Prog. of 60 ECTS.- The holders of an acad. deg.of "MA en sc. chimiques, physiques, mathématiques ou informatiques" or "MA en sc. de l'ingénieur or. bioingénieur" (CfB*), or an acad. deg.of "MA in de chemie, in de fysica, in de wiskunde of in de informatica" or "MA in de bio-ingenieurswetenschappen" (VGB*), or holders of an acad. deg. similar to those just mentioned, whereby the BNEN Steering Committee will impose an additional set of background courses (max. 60 ECTS), taking into account the contents of the curriculum already completed, and whereby previously relevant background courses may be valorized en accepted for credit transfer; a) If the student registers in an institution of the "CfB*", these additional credits are then part of the « MS*» will enroll in student and they are a prerequisite for the regular BNEN Prog. of 60 ECTS) If the student registers in an institution of the "VGB*", these additional credits are part of a preparatory "make up" Prog., before possibly being admitted to the BNEN Prog. of 60 ECTS. - The holders of a foreign acad. deg. judged similar to the academic degrees delivered by either the "CfB*" or the "VGB*", mentioned in the above items, under the same conditions (i.e. basic MA Prog. of at least 300 ECTS and depending on the acquired background in the curriculum and the level of abstraction) and according to the prescriptions of the respective decrees. The clearance to access the control zone of the SCK-CEN is delivered by the Federal Agency for Nuclear Control (FANC) and must be obtained to take part in laboratory sessions of the BNEN Prog.This clearance by FANC is a precondition to the BNEN Prog. and as such, all "admissions" given by the BNEN Steering Committee are conditional and thus "provisional".The "provisional" admission will be automatically cancelled if this clearance is not timely received by the student.*CfB:Communauté française de Belgique. *VGB:Vlaamse Gemeenschap van België.*MS:Master de spécialisation.
