entergy celebrates nuclear science week
12/09/2019
from elementary school to high school, mississippi to michigan, entergy’s nuclear employees celebrated nuclear science week in a variety of places and ways.
during the third week in october, entergy employees celebrate nuclear science week by participating in activities at many of our nuclear plants, often partnering with north american young generation in nuclear and women in nuclear chapters.
this year, the company expanded support to the national level. entergy joined nuclear industry partners and the national museum of nuclear science and history to sponsor 2019 nuclear science week events in washington, d.c.
celebrating nsw allows entergy employees to engage with their communities and build awareness of the contributions of the nuclear science industry and those who work in it every day. it’s also a great opportunity to highlight the importance of science, technology, engineering and math.
