India's central government is set to instruct leading technical institutions, including IITs and NITs, to launch nuclear technology courses across multiple qualification levels — from ITI-style certificates and diplomas through to PhD programmes. The initiative is designed to build the skilled workforce required to support a planned 100 GW nuclear capacity expansion.

A Niti Aayog expert committee chaired by nuclear scientist JB Joshi is finalising a report that will include a proposal for a dedicated Indian Institute of Nuclear Technology. The panel's recommendations are expected to be submitted shortly to the Education Ministry, the Department of Science and Technology, and other scientific departments.

Government estimates indicate that each gigawatt of nuclear capacity requires approximately 2,000 skilled personnel. India's Central Electricity Authority projects a need for 13,600 nuclear professionals by 2032, rising to over one lakh across PHWR, PWR, SMR, and FBR programmes. The 100 GW target is estimated to require around 250,000 skilled workers over 20 years.

Several IITs have already begun acting: IIT Bombay launched a Nuclear Engineering course following passage of the SHANTI Act, IIT Kanpur offers B-Tech and M-Tech programmes in nuclear science, and IIT Madras has introduced a summer course. Development of on-the-job training modules for vendors in nuclear and related manufacturing sectors is also under consideration.
