Master's Programme in Safe and Reliable Nuclear Applications (SARENA) is arranged as a double degree programme. It includes 30 ECTS of studies at IMT Atlantique, France, and 30 ECTS at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia (UL-Slovenia).

The extent of specialisation studies in Nuclear Reactor Physics and Thermal Hydraulics is 60 ECTS, including a Master's thesis of 30 ECTS. No elective studies are required, as the M.Sc. degree consists of specialisation studies (a min. of 60 ECTS) and credit transfer of 60 ECTS. However, studies of Finnish language are recommended.
