Course Details

Objectives : Strongly oriented towards the quality of observation and data, the NEWSPACE Master 2 ("Spatial Challenges and New Applications"), created by UVSQ in 2021 and accredited to Paris-Saclay University, aims to provide knowledge of the entire chain ranging from the concept of scientific observation instrument to the exploitation of data in order to meet market demands and new professions linked to emerging applications: miniaturization and fleets, drones, etc. vocation to respond to requests from the private sector, but also from so-called “instrumental” public research laboratories.

The training includes phases of practical experience in the form of practical work in infrastructures dedicated to space and with dedicated software, tutored team projects on concrete cases of calls for tenders and a 6-month internship minimum in a company or in a public or private research laboratory.

Ten engineering students from ESTACA can now apply for the Master 2 NEWSPACE at UVSQ, in parallel with their registration in the last year of engineering training. A reciprocal arrangement of the two formations will be put in place. The M2 NEWSPACE UVSQ-ESTACA double degree course will allow you to obtain the Master 2 degree from the University of Versailles Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines and the ESTACA engineering degree.

Degree Level (EU) : 7 - (EQC level or equivalent)

Targeted careers : At the end of the double degree, ESTACA engineers will be able to pursue a doctorate, for example within the framework of CIFRE scholarships (Industrial agreements for training through research), to meet the strong needs for innovation in this sector. They will also be able to work in the NewSpace sector as a design engineer, systems engineer, opto-electronics, salesperson, project manager, data scientist and all trades related to the cross-exploitation of spatial data and the implementation of application solutions. …
