Students and young scientists from 10 countries will participate in SSAU Summer Space School

22.08.2014, 16:08

On August 24, the Tenth International Summer Space School “Future Space Technologies and Experiments in Space” will be opened in Samara State Aerospace University. Its participants will be 40 students and young scientists from universities and scientific and research centres in Sweden, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Great Britain, France, Peru, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia.

During two weeks the space school participants will study modern computer technology, for micro- and nanosatellites design, electronic systems engineering and space missions analysis. Also, students will attend lectures and perform laboratory and practical training in modern technologies of orientation, stabilization, navigation, development of energy supply systems, telemetry, on-board control systems applied to micro- and nanosatellites. The tasks will be performed on the example of the scientific and educational CubeSat class nanosatellite SamSatQB50, created by the researchers and students of Samara Aerospace University.

In addition to the leading teachers SSAU, two foreign professors will take part in the school work. A course of lectures of the Head of the Space Centre of the Portugal University of Beira, Dr. Anna Herman will be devoted to the rope systems. Dr. Pierre Roaches – the Head of the Liege Space Centre (Belgium) will read two lectures on the theme: “The space environment and its role in the design of satellites”. The classes will begin at 9.00 and end at 17.00.

Participation in the Summer Space School will not only give students new unique knowledge and experience, but also will give an opportunity to earn extra points on the European system of evaluation development of educational programs - ECTS. The two-week course proposed to the listeners is estimated at 3.5 credit units. For comparison, one-semester classes in a European university correspond to 30 ECTS-credits. To obtain a Bachelor's Degree it’s necessary to have in total from 180 to 240, and for Master’s Degree - 300 ECTS-credits.

In addition to lectures and workshops, the school students will be acquainted with SSAU laboratories and scientific experiments programs, as well as development plans of the Space and Missile Centre “Progress” as for creation and launch of new types of scientific spacecrafts “Foton” and “Bion”.
 
Moreover, the students of the Summer Space School will hold a round table on cooperation and development of joint educational programs in the field of space, and will take part in a video conference with the Headquarters of the World Association of Space Universities located in Kyoto University (Japan).
