Fusion Industry School

Fusion Industry School is a two-part professional training program organized by the Fusion Centre for Doctoral Training and the UK Atomic Energy Authority. The University of York leads event administration. The school is aimed at engineering or science professionals with 0–3 years of fusion experience; prior fusion knowledge is not required.

In 2026, the York course covered fusion physics, science, and technology, including plasma physics. The Oxford course covered fusion engineering, economics, and regulation, and included a tour of the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy. These details describe the 2026 courses; the available claims do not establish future dates or availability.

The school targets professionals with an engineering or scientific background and 0–3 years of fusion experience; this describes its intended audience, not a stated eligibility restriction. Prior fusion knowledge is not required. In 2026, four carer-support packages of up to £250 each were offered to eligible delegates attending one or both school weeks who had additional costs arising from caring responsibilities.

The 2026 program offered York and Oxford course weeks. Their booking deadlines were May 18 and August 10, 2026, respectively, both at noon. Those dates have passed; these claims do not establish future dates.

Fusion CDT reports that 91% of participants across the seven preceding school events were very satisfied. This is an organizer-reported figure.
