Tuition fee/Period/Venue

TUITION FEE

In no case the tuition fee for the 6th SEEDS edition will exceed 5000,00 Euro. This rate is intended for the whole SEEDS course and includes also the university fees. If the financial support received during the last editions (sponsorships, subsidies, EU Social Fund …) will be confirmed also for 2011/12 the quoted amount will be reduced (in the first 5 edition the fee ranged from 3000 to 4500 Euro, depending on the obtained financial support). 


For all students who submit an application by 9th November 2011 there is a reduction of 10% on entry fee.


It is emphasized that no fellowships are available since, according to its policy, SEEDS utilizes any additional financial income to realize a generalized fee reduction as high as possible, rather than to support individual students. As a consequence, separate fellowships have to be found by the students themselves. For instance, some Italian Regions support their citizens’ attendance of post-degree courses (information can be obtained from the regional offices).


Accommodation and travel costs during the all teaching and Project Work phases are to be sustained by the students.


A maximum number of 15 participants is foreseen in Torino.


The Master Course will be activated on condition that there are at least 10 students and foreseen sponsorships have been confirmed.


The Scientific Committee may decide to activate the Post Graduate Master Course with a reduced partecipant’s number.


Corep allows several facilitations to pay the fees (installment, ad honorem loan, honorary loan). For further information, click here.

 

PERIOD

The course will be held from January 2012 to January 2013 and will start indicatively on January 16th

VENUE

The first months of lectures and exercises in Torino will be held at COREP, C.so Trento 13.


The SEEDS Project Work activity will then start with an Introduction lasting two weeks, to be partly spent either at the Space Centre ALTEC or in the Thales Alenia Space premises. Then two weeks of additional lectures and exercised will follow in Toulouse, just before the start of the first Project Work phase which will finish at the end of July. Back to Torino the students will perform the second project Work phase which will end in December.


It is expected that – as in the first five editions – the final Project Work discussion will be held at the ESA ESTEC Space Centre in Noordwijk (The Netherlands) or in another European space establishment.
