Abstract Since the advent of the Nuclear Age mankind has been both fascinated by the potential of nuclear processes, and fearful of its destructive power. Nuclear technologies have undergone rapid development, while most of society is left with a poor understanding about the benefits and risks involved. “Our Nuclear Society: from Chemobyl to PET Scans”, and “Energy, Technology and Risk” are two courses developed at the University of Maryland in an effort to introduce students from all backgrounds to issues and applications of nuclear science. Course material and presentation strategies are geared toward keeping the course interesting and informative for all students.
