Since being founded in 1975, the European Nuclear Society (ENS) has grown to become the largest society in Europe for science, engineering and research in support of the nuclear industry.[1] ENS's membership consists of national nuclear societies from 22 European countries, and additionally, Israel. Within the membership there are also stakeholder representatives for nuclear technology and research businesses, with around 60 corporate members.[2] ENS exists to promote the advancement of peaceful uses of nuclear energy on an international level, encouraging networking between countries and facilitating meetings to support global communication on scientific and technical affairs. ENS also supports education and training in engineering, promotes international standardisation in the nuclear industry, coordinates the activities of the member organisations and develops the expertise and capability needed for the future of the industry.[3] One of ENS's activities is organising conferences and workshops, providing a platform for international forums to exchange knowledge, experience, ideas and scientific developments.[4]
The current president of the European Nuclear Society is Noël Camarcat.[5]
The ENS is member of the International Nuclear Societies Council (INSC).
