Space Studies Program (SSP)

The International Space University’s Space Studies Program (SSP) is a flagship interdisciplinary and intercultural experience for professionals and graduate students passionate about the space sector.

Each year, the SSP convenes participants from 25+ countries for eight intensive weeks of learning, networking, and collaboration across engineering, business, policy, law, and science — all through ISU’s signature 3I’s philosophy: Interdisciplinary, Intercultural, and International.

Through hands-on projects, workshops, and team challenges, SSP participants develop the skills and mindset needed to drive innovation and cooperation in the global space community. The program is hosted in partnership with space agencies, research institutions, and private companies in rotating locations around the world.

ISU welcomes:

• Organizations looking to sponsor or send employees to the SSP to strengthen internal talent pipelines.

• Institutions or regional partners interested in hosting a future SSP.

• Industry collaborators seeking to engage directly with an elite global network of emerging and established space professionals.

The SSP is part of ISU’s MOON SHOT 2030 strategy to empower a diverse global workforce for the New Space Economy.

Let’s connect to explore:

• Sponsorship and employee participation

• Hosting or co-developing an SSP in your region

• Joint projects or partnerships aligned with space education and innovation
