In 2012, Y-12 requested that UT reinstitute the Chemistry Department radiochemistry class as a special offering. The following class was jointly organized by the departments of Nuclear Engineering and Chemistry, and taught by George Schweitzer (Chemistry) during the 2012 summer session.
In 2023, Dr. Ivis Chapel-Gore took over the course making it a NE hosted course.
