"Description of qualifications\nThe aim of the course is to analyse, describe and explainlearn the basic concepts of space missions and space technology. The delphini-1 space mission will be used as a practical example throughout the course.\n\nWhen the course is finished the student is expected to be able to: \n\nDiscuss and understand the background and content of the theoretical and practical parts of space missions and space communication.\nDiscuss Celestial Mechanics and Mission Analysis \nDiscuss and model the space environment (e.g. microgravity radiation, temperature, …). \nDiscuss satellite communications. \nDiscuss different techniques for Earth Observations (remote sensing) and astronomy and perform simple data analyses. \nSearch for relevant scientific literature. \nDesign a space mission (e.g. with the aim of doing remote sensing, astronomy, monitoring signals of airplanes, etc…).\nCollaborate in smaller groups with the aim of producing a scientific analysis. \nPresent the results as a small talk at a final workshop day.\nContents\nThe course will provide an introduction to spacecrafts, space systems, and payloads. We will establish the background to understand Celestial Mechanics, Mission Analysis, and the space environment. In addition, the course will give an overview over satellite communications, telemetry and data handling. We will discuss Spacecraft System Engineering with focus on Small Satellite Engineering and Applications. Finally we will give an overview about scientific techniques that can be applied to Earth and Space observations (e.g. Earth remote sensing, Solar System in situ research, astronomical observations). \n\nThe practical part of the course will consist of designing a space mission and presenting it." . .

"Graduates of the Department of Physics and Astronomy are very much in demand in the job market and they find work quickly. There are many career opportunities, both in Denmark and abroad. Graduates’ skills in image-processing and analysis of large data volumes are highly attractive to the business community, which has employed a high proportion of astronomy graduates over the years. Some graduates continue in research as PhD students, with a view to a career in Denmark or abroad."@en . . . "2"@en . "FALSE" . . "Master"@en . "Thesis" . "no tuition, other costs may apply" .
