https://www.isae-supaero.fr/en/academics/advanced-masters/program SEEDS (SpacE Exploration and Development Systems) is a 2nd level Specializing Masters Programme focused on the human and robotic exploration of space and on the related systems, instrumentation and techniques. It aims to provide the applied physics and engineering skills required to develop space systems and missions from initial concept through design, assembly and verification, to launch and operations. To reach these objectives SEEDS stems from a joint initiative of three European Higher Education Institutions located in three countries, namely The University of Leicester in UK, Politecnico di Torino in Italy and Institut Supérieur de l’Aéronautique et l’Espace (ISAE - Supaero, Toulouse) in France. All three partners share common features including: strong links with space industry, heritage in space research and exploration and the inclusion of high-level expertise in the delivery of teaching, based on both the academia and the industry.
