Nuclear technology covers all the different areas of technology necessary to handle the nuclear application being considered. For nuclear power production, these could be summarised as covering:

Performance behaviour of the fuel- involves knowledge of reactor physics

Specification and manufacture of the fuel assemblies

The pressure vessel-manufacture to the highest possible standards

The primary coolant circuit-as for the pressure vessel

Control and Instrumentation-reactor and auxiliaries, central control room

Chemistry of the primary circuit-preventing corrosion of components

Control rods and their drives

Refuelling arrangements

Storage of discharged fuel

Analysis of all possible faults to ensure safe operation

Production of operating manuals

So there are a lot of different disciplines to be co-ordinated
