The Next Space Frontier

The ECSS (European Cooperation for Space Standardization) standards play a vital role in the development, operation, and safety of space missions across Europe and beyond. These standards serve the crucial need of ensuring interoperability, reliability, and quality throughout the entire lifecycle of space systems. From design and manufacturing to testing and operation, adherence to ECSS standards fosters consistency and compatibility among different components and subsystems, ultimately reducing risks and costs associated with space endeavours.

Moreover, these standards are not static; they evolve to address emerging challenges and incorporate technological advancements. Recent trends in ECSS standards reflect a growing emphasis on sustainability, cybersecurity, and the integration of new materials and propulsion. As the space industry continues to expand, the ECSS remains a cornerstone for ensuring the success of the space missions.

Learning Objectives

ECSS Standards course covers all the key elements for every space project: management, engineering, product assurance, and sustainability. Explore the realities of managing a space activity, from adopting standards, making strategic decisions, managing people and performance effectively.

Focusing on the development of critical thinking, the ECSS Standards course provides you with the knowledge about Space Standardization. Learn the tools and apply international standards to work with or for the European Space ecosystem like space sustainability.

Whether you are managing a small or a complex project, you need to acquire the knowledge related to space standardization. The course provides you with a 360 degrees view from project management to system engineering and product assurance.
