Intern
SATEC - Master's in Satellite Technology

Courses

We unify expertise from a broad range of European and German Research institutions to create an advanced Master's in satellite technology in the Bavarian elite study program. Numerous lectures from experts in space research and industrial institutions enrich our courses. The key spacecraft design aspects as well as satellite applications in Earth observation and telecommunications will be addressed. The students will participate in projects and research activities with the German Space Organisation and the European Space Industry. SaTec has the potential to educate Bavaria's top students to become future leaders in space industry and research institutions. All courses will be in English. The official regulations of this course can be found [here], please search for "Satellite Technology" in the pdf. This document is currently only available in German.
