Master of Science in Space Studies
The space sector plays an important role in economic, social, technological and scientific developments. The Master of Space Studies corresponds to the needs of the sector by delivering highly skilled experts with a broad and in-depth interdisciplinary perspective. Students develop critical knowledge skills regarding relevant technological sectors, exact and biomedical sciences, space-related law and policy, and economics encompassing space industry, business and management.
