Course Details

Objectives : The first objective of the training is to provide an understanding of space systems, their environment and constraints, and their capabilities in the fields of earth observation, communications and navigation.
The second objective is to enable learners, using examples and experimental work, to grasp the interest of space systems for spatial applications and services in different domains, with or without the inclusion of other data. Learners will be able to propose and design tools and solutions to problems in the fields of environment, agriculture, transport and urban planning, etc.
In this way, the trained public will be able to better understand the performance of space systems and thus to specify the needs of users and to develop new applications and complementary integrated services based on data and Images from space systems and other sources (eg aerial photographs, field data, etc.).

Public concerned : Students or Professionals

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

Admission requirements :
Entry level: bac +5 or bac +4 for experienced profiles
Master 2 diploma or engineering degree bac +5 (or equivalent diploma) or Master 1 diploma (or equivalent) with at least 3 years of professional experience

Targeted careers : This Specialized Master® offers opportunities in a wide range of professions:
- Professions related to the cross-exploitation of space data (observation of the earth and its atmosphere, telecommunications, positioning data, data from scientific and exploration missions) in complex information systems,
- Consultancy professions for the expression of needs, the definition and the implementation of application solutions using spatial data,
-New professions around the challenges of the "New Space".

This Specialized Master® guarantees a high level of expertise necessary for current and future jobs in the international space sector.

Duration and terms : One-year diploma course with 6 months of face-to-face courses (from the end of September to the end of March approximately) followed by a professional thesis in a company, from 4 to 6 months approximately.
