Objectives

This programme stems from the STePE (Earth and Planetary Science, Environment) global Masters Programme. It aims to provide knowledge of the entire design process of a satellite, from the payload concept to the exploitation of data during flight in order to meet market demands and new professions linked to emerging applications (satellite miniaturization, Cubesats, satellite fleets, drones, etc.). This Masters programme is therefore strongly oriented towards the quality of observation and data by providing a better understanding of the emergence of instrumental concepts, AIT/AIV approaches (integration and testing), data analysis and validation of final products. It integrates phases of practical examples in the form of team projects tutored on concrete cases (Learning by doing), several serious games, and an internship in a company or laboratory. This training aims to meet the needs of the private sector and Space public research laboratories but can also lead to PhDs, ideally within the framework of CIFRE scholarships (public/private funding) due to the significant needs concerning innovation in this sector.
