September, 18th 2017 

The Space and Astronautical Engineering Master’s programme (SAEM) provides students with specific skills related to space mission planning and the analysis and design of launch vehicles, satellites and remote metering and telemetry systems. The programme emphasises system-related and interdisciplinary aspects and is closely linked with research and innovation activities in the Italian and European aerospace industries.

The programme in Aerospace Engineering, which is part of the SAEM degree programme, is held entirely in English and provides students with advanced concepts, professional training and specific engineering skills, enabling them to address complex issues requiring analysis, development, simulation and optimization in a wide range of aerospace-related topics. 

In year one, students acquire knowledge related to major areas of Space Engineering such as Spaceflight Mechanics and Altitude Dynamics, Systems and Control Theory, Compressible Fluid Dynamics, Propulsion, Structures and Space Systems; whereas during the second year, students select follow-up courses from a wide range of topics directly related to Space and Aeronautical Engineering.

Besides the general documents, the selection process requires the following documents:

IELTS (International English Language Testing System) or TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) English Language proficiency certification [certified minimum level B2 or equivalent is required]

The submission of the following documents is strongly recommended and will constitute a positive element in the evaluation for admission to the programme :

• Cumulative Weighted Grade Point Average (CGPA)
• GRE (Graduate Record Examinations) General test, or Subject Tests in Mathematics or Physics.

Admission test grades either general or specific for aerospace engineering, as for instance GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) for aerospace engineering (AE), will be also taken into consideration.

The selection committee may request an interview with the prospective students via Skype or other services. 

The selection process is formed by three phases whose schedule is:

1^st November 2017: pre-enrollment opens.

1^st -15^th December 2017: first selection phase. Letters of acceptance are sent to the best candidates who have applied in November. Unselected applicants will be considered for the second selection phase.

NEW MASTER DEGREE PROGRAM TAUGHT IN ENGLISH 

The Master programme in Space and Astronautic Engineering (MSAR) gives the student specific skills in space mission planning and the analysis and design of launch vehicles, satellites, and remote metering and telemetry systems, with particular reference to systems-related and interdisciplinary aspects. The course has a strong on-going relationship with research and innovation in the Italian and European aerospace industries. As a track of MSAR, the course of study in Aerospace Engineering – which is entirely given in English – offers to foreign students advanced disciplinary and professional training and specific engineering skills, enabling them to address complex problems requiring analysis, development, simulation, and optimization in a wide variety of aerospace-related topics. The educational path of the programme in Aerospace Engineering is organized as follows. The first year provides a foundation of knowledge in the major areas of Space Engineering such as Spaceflight Mechanics and Attitude Dynamics, Controls, Compressible Fluid Dynamics, Propulsion, Structures and Space systems. In the second year the student may focalize on a wide range of topics selecting a set of follow-on courses in Space and Aeronautical Engineering. Selected students can be admitted to double-degree programs that provide for reciprocal recognition with Grandes Ecoles in France and Instituto Superior Tecnico Lisboa in Portugal.The link for pre-selection process ishttp://en.uniroma1.it/study-us/degrees-english/pre-selection-processFurther information will be available on this website in due time.
