Our short one-week Space Systems Engineering course in Southampton has provided training for professional engineers in the spacecraft manufacturing and associated industries since 1974. To date over 5000 personnel have attended the course, from companies world-wide.
The course is organised and run by academic staff members in the Astronautics Group, who also lecture and have considerable expertise and experience in their specific research fields. This expertise is complemented by that of engineers from STFC RAL Space, Airbus Defence and Space, DLR-GSOC, the Surrey Space Centre and ESA. The group have delivered similar courses for the ESA Training Department, at ESTEC in the Netherlands as well as courses at ESA Headquarters in Paris, ESOC in Darmstadt, ESRIN in Italy, ESAC in Madrid, Airbus DS in the UK and STFC RAL Space.
