Description

The RADSAGA ITN is a wide research and training project involving about 30 partners and training 15 Early Stage Researchers. Training, communication and data sharing are key values for the project.
The project provided innovative and interdisciplinary training adapted to radiation effects scientists and engineers. The program has also covered topics as entrepreneurship, knowledge transfer and project management classes. Subjects so far included in very different academic disciplines - such as semiconductor physics, electronic systems engineering, applied nuclear physics, accelerator technology, etc. - have been combined in a coherent study and training plan that resulted in the formation of highly qualified professionals, thus guaranteeing the competitiveness of the European industry in a strategic domain such as that of system reliability.

Outreach and dissemination activities have also had an important impact on the ESRs training, allowing the creation and consolidation of professional networks and giving the possibility to get in contact with non scientific audience and reflecting on the importance of science.
