MSc in Space Science and Technology

This qualification explores space science and the underpinning technology. Developed with the UK Space Agency and leading space industry partners, it prepares you for a career or further research in the space sector. You will conduct scientific investigations independently and collaboratively using space-based instrumentation and programming tools, gaining insight into scientific measurement in the space environment and the design of spacecraft systems and instrumentation. Optional modules let you tailor your studies across applied mathematics, computing and IT, engineering, environmental management, project management, physical sciences and systems thinking. You will also complete a major research project in space science or technology.
