ROSPIN Academy is our educational program for students and young professionals who are passionate about space. If you are enrolled in a full-time Bachelor’s, Master’s, Ph.D. or you have under 5 years of professional experience and you want to get started in the space industry, this is the place for you.
In its fourth edition, ROSPIN Academy undergoes a transformation into a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC), designed for University students who show a dedicated interest to expand their knowledge and expertise in the industry.
ROSPIN Academy will contain several courses, yet we will start with a set of introductory lessons about the space sector in the Intro to the Space Sector (ISS) course. The lessons contain the same educational content that was covered within Level 1, which was the name of the ISS course before this transition to the MOOC format.
Active communication with the participants in order to contour a great, even "extraterrestrial", learning experience.
Listening to and learning from feedback. The syllabus was adjusted with people's wishes in mind.
Bridging the gap between participants and outer space with the help of a modern approach to learning.
Initiating students and broadening their understanding of the world around them.
Understand the complexity, depth and level of international collaboration within the space industry.
A syllabus dedicated to technical, inspirational and soft skills lectures.
Develop your comprehension of our proposed subjects by discussing them with other participants in breakout sessions.
ROSPIN Academy was spread across 3 Levels that were coordinated with the least busy periods during a University calendar year. Reaching its 3rd Edition, the ROSPIN Academy educational programme was composed of the levels described below:
