INCREDIBILE OPPORTUNITIES TO IMPROVE YOUR NETWORK, KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS

ESA’s TEC Directorate regularly organises events covering a diverse range of the topics related to space technology.
These events are targeted at specific audiences or can be completely open to anyone interested. They can be hosted in physical locations or held online, and can also feature exhibitors and side events.
Regardless, all of them provide great opportunities to network with Europe’s spaceflight community and to learn from experienced professionals.
If you are a university student, you may find dedicated training opportunities offered by our ESA Education Academy <a href="https://www.esa.int/Education/ESA_Academy/Current_opportunities_for_university_students" target="_blank">here</a>&nbsp;
