SpaceTech

TU Delft offers a Master of Space Systems Engineering program, "SpaceTech," as part of its executive education program.

SpaceTech combines traditional Systems Engineering and Business Engineering into a comprehensive and integrated curriculum. In operation for more than ten years, SpaceTech is one of the few training programs in the world specializing in international space education and is internationally recognized for its contributions to the training of future leaders in the field.

SpaceTech has successfully created a multi-cultural and multi-disciplinary network and teaching environment that attracts a number of well-known, respected and highly competent lecturers as well as participants from many parts of the world - a true 'international' institute.

Space Systems Engineering is an end-to-end process, which starts by clearly understanding market demands and the competitive space business environment, and leads to a cohesive overall system design comprised of space, ground, and service elements. The program has been developed in cooperation with and is supported by ESA, ASI, CNES and DLR, as well as a number of space companies, including Alcatel Alenia Space, the Boeing Company, and EADS. In addition, SpaceTech has been approved as a fellowship programme by NASA.
