About the Conference
Building on the success of the inaugural Saudi International Conference on Nuclear Power Engineering (SCOPE) held in November 2023, KFUPM is pleased to invite esteemed researchers, scientists, and industry professionals to contribute to the second SCOPE 2025 conference. As the kingdom advances toward a sustainable energy future, this conference aims to illuminate the path for clean nuclear energy by bringing together experts in nuclear science and engineering. SCOPE 2025 welcomes original contributions in various areas of nuclear science and engineering. Authors of accepted contributions will have the opportunity to present their research during the conference, fostering discussions and collaborations that shape the future of nuclear energy.

Join us to lead the innovation and shape a cleaner energy future for Saudi Arabia and beyond!
