Master of Science Global Navigation Satellite System (MSc GNSS)

Course Details

Objectives : The Master of Science (MSc) in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is a 2-year program co-organized by ENAC and the Institut Supérieur de l’Aéronautique et de l’Espace (ISAE). This MSc in GNSS has been developed with the support of the European Commission and the European GNSS Agency. The first session is going to begin in September, 2012.

Recently, GNSS has gained a lot of attention worldwide due to a significant increase of the applications using GPS for positioning:
leisure,
farming,
aeronautics,
location-based services,
etc.
This international enthusiasm is confirmed by the worldwide development of other global and regional satellite-based navigation systems in Europe, US, China, Russia, India and Japan, creating a strong need for experts in this field job.

The objective of this MSc in GNSS is to provide students with advanced skills and knowledge in the field of GNSS and its related applications to prepare them for entering the highly dynamic GNSS and GNSS-dependent industry. In addition, the students will also receive training in telecommunications, as both fields are strongly complementary.
This MSc in GNSS will provide students with a head start in the evolving and growing market of satellite-based navigation and telecommunications. The graduate students will have the ability to enter large companies, SMEs, national institutions, and research laboratories.

Concerned public : Students

Level of training : I

Admission requirements : This program is open to any applicant with a completed bachelor in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mathematics, Physics or equivalent.

Duration and terms : 2 years

Notes : This MSc in GNSS was developed with the support of the European Commission and the European GNSS Agency, GSA (7th Framework Programme under grant agreement no. 248016).

It has been realized in partnership with the Institute of Geodesy and Navigation of the University of Federal Armed Forces (Munich, Germany) and Politecnico di Torino (Torino, Italy), both recognized for their leading international roles in education and research in the field of GNSS. These two universities also contribute to the MSc teaching and provide their international links with the GNSS industry.
