Graduate profile and further learning opportunities:

The graduate of the study will have got the well-ordered and extended knowledge and skills in numerous fields and specialised topics related to space, especially regarding the engineering and management of space systems.

Due to the development of such innovative industry sector as space exploration and utilisation technologies in Poland, also in the Pomerania region, the opportunities of employment as well as further education are wide for the Space and Satellite Technology study graduates. They will be able to be employed in universities and other institutions engaged in research and development in the area of space and satellite technologies. Also, they will be able to find a job in the industry, namely, both in the Polish branches of well recognised international corporations operating for a long time in space industry, and in smaller local firms offering services in the areas including space constructions design, satellite telecommunications, satellite navigation, Earth observation, Geographic Information Systems, and other numerous applications of IT, as well as of mechanic and mechatronic solutions.

In the case of the international study program Engineering and Management of Space Systems, graduates will have a particular advantage on the labor market due to the knowledge and experience gained during the semester of studies carried out at Bremen City University of Applied Sciences, in close cooperation with numerous Bremen industrial entities from the space sector that are well recognized in Europe.
