The 2nd level Specializing Master's Programme in 'SpacE Exploration and Development Systems' (SEEDS) started in 2005 following a proposal of Politecnico di Torino addressed to its European partners.
SEEDS is focused on the human and robotic exploration of space and on the related missions, systems, and technologies. The purpose of the programme is to provide young graduates with the core applied physics and engineering skills required to develop space systems and missions from initial concept.
The Programme is a full-time one academic year Programme for a total of 80 ECTS, followed by an internship period in which participants develop a Project Work. The teaching Programme includes 5 months classroom activities with academic and corporate teaching staff.
