The Space Technology pathway of the MSc Space Science & Engineering offers knowledge and skills needed. Taught by academics from UCL's Mullard Space Science Laboratory, this MSc programme covers all aspects of the space environment, space systems and their design, together with the principles of space technology, satellite communications. Coupled with specialised training in research methods and transferable skills, the course equips students for a career in the public and private space sectors. The Space Technology pathway is focused on the application of space technology in industrial settings, its main objective is to provide a sound knowledge of the underlying principles which form a thorough basis for careers in space technology, satellite communications and related fields. Students develop a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of: spacecraft, satellite communications, the space environment, space operations and space project management the electromagnetics of optical and microwave transmission, and of communication systems modelling a range of subjects relating to spacecraft technology and satellite communications. This MSc requires students to have an undergraduate degree level of knowledge in a related discipline, who wish to develop a career in space research or related fields. The programme aims to provide a broad understanding of all aspects of space engineering together with specialised training in research methods, directly applicable to a career in industry, academia, and the public sector.
