Summary
On this unique master's, you'll focus on the design of all elements involved in a space mission, and use an integrated approach, which demonstrates how the various component subsystems function and interface with each other. This master's has a strong practical focus.
Developed by world-class experts from our Astronautics Research Group and endorsed by the UK Space Agency, it will give you the skills and knowledge to pursue further specialism, whether you’re a recent engineering, science or maths graduate or already working in the aerospace industry.
We are uniquely placed to offer this programme, drawing extensively from courses provided to the European Space Agency by our Astronautics group. Our course is suitable if you have previously studied physics or engineering.
