Make your Masters matter at UCL Space and Climate Physics & Systems Engineering - scholarships available

At UCL Space and Climate Physics, we’re pushing forward the boundaries of space science research and systems engineering. Collaborating with top engineers, our scientists and research students are building and testing instruments for space, including many that are helping to explore planets, comets and the wider solar system on major space missions.

The Department of Space and Climate Physics, incorporating the Mullard Space Science Laboratory, is a world-leading research organisation and one of the largest university space science groups in the UK. MSSL hardware has been on over 300 space missions since 1957 and been placed in orbit around Earth, Mars, Venus and Saturn, as well as visiting comets passing through the solar system.

Established in 1998, the UCL Centre for Systems Engineering (UCLse) had the founding aim to harness the knowledge and skills developed by the Mullard Space Science Laboratory, and share this expertise with systems engineers in other sectors. Our MSc courses are designed to build your expertise in this sought-after area, working with UCL’s experts as part of our thriving systems engineering community. You'll gain industry-informed systems engineering expertise, drawing on UCL’s long-standing experience delivering complex projects in the space sector and beyond, to build the expertise to lead complex engineering, technology and infrastructure projects in an increasingly interconnected world.

Our students have gone onto leading positions with employers like ESA and Airbus, while others have progressed onto a PhD.
