Regarding your first point, I believe the current dearth of programs is a function of lack of demand: When I was at Georgia Tech, we had a reactor on campus and still only had 3 Nuclear Engineering students.

There is demand from industry, but not from students. In my class at NCSU I was the only one; the years before and after there were less than 10.

It's still a small department at NCSU, but not that small (so I've been told). I know some guys graduating this year and looking at graduate opportunities.

OT: Hello fellow Wolfpack-er. I think there are a couple other NCSU grads on HN, too.
