Post Graduate Master Course by the First School of Engineering
of Politecnico di Torino
SPACE EXPLORATION AND
DEVELOPMENT SYSTEMS (SEEDS)
Edition VI – 2011/2012
SEEDS looks at
the major
European Space Agencies and Companies involved in Exploration projects,
such as
the European Space Agency (ESA), the Italian (ASI), the French (CNES)
and the
other national Agencies, the main European companies active in the
space sector
(like Thales
Alenia Space which supports SEEDS) and
other establishments. These organizations are strongly interested to
the Master
initiative since its main focus lies on the training of engineering
resources
oriented to the specific Exploration system products, prepared to work
in an
international context and trained on the job by using modern and
company
oriented engineering methodologies.
It
is expected that the students successfully completing the SEEDS courses
and
associated Project Works will be employed by the partner organizations
at the
proper level in their Engineering Teams working on the Space
Exploration
projects. The employment rates of the graduates from the five SEEDS
editions
confirm these expectations: 50
out of 54
graduates from the 2005/06 edition to the 2009/2010 are presently
working on
space activities in
