The EnergySolutions Foundation
The EnergySolutions Foundation is dedicated to cleaning up the environment in Utah. We also offer scholarships to high school students to promote the study of math, science, and engineering. Such scholarships are awarded to students in select high schools in Utah, Washington, Idaho, Tennessee, South Carolina, Georgia, and Ohio.
 As part of it's commitment to education, the EnergySolutions Foundation has developed new tools for educating Junior High and High School students on nuclear energy. Nuclear Energy and the Use of Nuclear Material written by Dr. Raul Deju, President of EnergySolutions and by Dr. Harry Babad contains the a comprehensive overview of the nuclear power cycle as well as a PowerPoint presentation for each of the chapters. This information is designed to encourage teachers and students to learn more about nuclear energy.
Alphas, Betas, Gammas, Oh My! contains nuclear energy Lesson Plans/Labs/Activities created from Nuclear Energy and the Use of Nuclear Material. The lesson plans, etc. were created by some of the top science teachers in Utah. This package also contains a PowerPoint presentation created by the EnergySolutions training department and reviewed by EnergySolutions scientists. The presentation is entitled Safe and Reliable Energy.
These tools are available free of charge to schools and other parties interested in learning more about nuclear energy. For a complete set, please contact Pearl Wright at the EnergySolutions Foundation at 801-649-2201 or pwright@energysolutionsfoundation.org.
