Online Introduction to Space Law Training Course 2021

During this five day online training course, university students will be offered an introductory overview of space law delivered by ESA and external experts: why it is necessary today to regulate space activities and how it applies practically to space missions, from the smallest of projects like a university’s CubeSat project, the most famous feats of space endeavours like human spaceflight and the International Space Station right through to forward-looking questions like planetary defence. By the end of this programme, students will appreciate the importance of law in the realisation of a space mission and they will have an overview of the international legal frameworks which governs the space activity today.

Dates: 1-5 March 2021
Open to: Bachelor, Master or PhD students in an engineering or scientific degree.
Deadline to apply: 22 January 2021
