ISU announces 2011-2012 Executive MBA programme

IAF member, the International Space University (ISU) has announced its 2011-2012 Executive MBA programme.

The ISU provides postgraduate training to members of the emerging global space community at its Central Campus in Strasbourg, France, and at locations around the world. The ISU offers its students a unique Core Curriculum covering all disciplines related to space programmes and enterprises – space science, space engineering and applications, systems engineering, space policy and law, business and management, and space and society.


Since its founding in 1987, the ISU has graduated more than 3000 students from over 100 countries.

True to the ISU tradition, the Executive MBA intends to provide excellence in training of space leaders in an uncompromising manner. The modular nature of the programme allows high-value professionals to remain dedicated to their relevant tasks, while investing in their careers and future potential by joining a like-minded class. At the same time, the 9 residential weeks during an 18-month period allow the absorption of the relevant material and the creation of a balanced curriculum that seeks to exceed expectations and provide all the necessary skills for doing business in the space sector.

The traditional MBA core elements are taught in an interactive and applied manner, while coupled with elements of a Master's in Public Administration, necessary to incorporate a pragmatic understanding of the space sector. True to ISU's interdisciplinary nature, this program provides at the early beginning an overview of the technical characteristics and also significant team-building skills for the bonding of the group.
