Build a dream career in the rapidly growing space industry with one of its kind MTech in Space Technology program at ADYPU. Designed by a team of experts and industry veterans, this program takes a hands-on approach to equip students with the key skills and knowledge needed to build a lucrative career in this field.
The course will consist of both theoretical and practical elements (these are defined as knowledge application, which could be either through physical tests or computer simulations), which will be delivered in a blended learning approach, which is a combination of on-site, online, and pre-recorded lecture material supported by a combination of self-learning, tutorials, and workshop or seminar sessions. For practical sessions, these would consist of on-site activities, mainly tutorial sessions for the students to practise the application of technical software.
With real-world experience through industry-standard software and projects, students will gain the confidence to tackle technical and design challenges in spacecraft and launch vehicle design, and mission planning.
The program is curated and will be executed by experienced space professionals, providing students with the opportunity to learn from the best in the industry. Through individual and group projects, you'll be intellectually stimulated to demonstrate your knowledge and creativity in solving real-world problems. With a curriculum that balances aerospace engineering and aeronautics, students will receive the essential scientific and practical knowledge to thrive in this dynamic field.
