Why choose this course
The night sky presents us with the idea of infinity, and advances in space engineering give us the opportunity to go further and explore more than ever before.
At Surrey, we pioneered sophisticated ‘micro-satellites’ in the 1980s. Since then, we’ve maintained a programme of building?entire satellites, performing mission planning, working with international launch agencies and providing in-orbit operations. This activity?keeps?us at the forefront of the space revolution.
With?Surrey Space Centre?on?our?campus, and our?strategic partnership agreements with?Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd?and Airbus,?we are part of the lifeblood of the UK’s industrial space sector.
What you will study
Our MSc?is designed to give you the specialist multidisciplinary knowledge and skills required for a career working with space technologies. You’ll have access to all aspects of the design and delivery of spacecraft and payloads.
We are the only UK academic institution that develops, builds and operates complete space missions – from initial concept to hardware design, manufacturing and testing to in-orbit operations.?All this?is controlled by our own spacecraft mission operation ground station?at?Surrey Space Centre. Because of this, you’ll have the chance to?gain?first-hand experience of real space missions and how this relates to the taught modules.
Professional recognition
