EE-580: Introduction to the design of space mechanismsSpace environment is different from what we can experience on Earth, requiring specific design approaches in order to achieve reliable operations. Engineers must hence face new challenges stimulating their creativity to tackle those particular constraints. ...
EE-585: Space mission design and operationsSpace mission design and operations takes you through the necessary concepts to understand a mission mission, from planning to actually flying the spacecraft. We will focus on concepts and see many examples ranging historical probes to very topical mission ...
EE-587: Space sustainability, a multidisciplinary approachThe students will learn the history and geopolitical challenges of space sust. Different tools and methods to measure, understand and act for space sust. will be presented. Throughout group work, the students will evaluate the technical, economical, govern ...
CS-450: Algorithms IIA first graduate course in algorithms, this course assumes minimal background, but moves rapidly. The objective is to learn the main techniques of algorithm analysis and design, while building a repertory of basic algorithmic solutions to problems in many ...
ENG-410: Energy supply, economics and transitionThis course examines energy systems from various angles: available resources, how they can be combined or substituted, their private and social costs, whether they can meet the energy demand, and how the transition to a renewable energy system can be foste ...
ENG-510: Space propulsionThe main objective of the course is to provide an overview about space propulsion systems like thermal propulsion systems, chemical propulsion systems and electrical propulsion systems. The secondary objective is to discuss all relevant equipment needed fo ...
MGT-462: New space economyThis course will teach students the major trends and characteristics of the space economy. We will examine key business models that use space technologies, including those that benefit from use cases right here on Earth. As a final project, students will e ...
EE-584: Spacecraft design and system engineeringThe main objective of the course is to provide tools and notions for spacecraft design. The course will start with an introduction on systems engineering, then the different subsystems of a spacecraft will be explored. External teachers from industry will ...
PHYS-100: Advanced physics I (mechanics)La Physique Générale I (avancée) couvre la mécanique du point et du solide indéformable. Apprendre la mécanique, c'est apprendre à mettre sous forme mathématique un phénomène physique, en modélisant la situation et appliquant les lois de la physique. ...
PHYS-314: Quantum physics IIThe aim of this course is to familiarize the student with the concepts, methods and consequences of quantum physics. ...
AR-365: Theory and architectural cultureLe cours offre un résumé de la théorie et la culture architecturales depuis 1789 dans le monde occidentale. Le but est de comprendre des textes dans lesquels l'architecture est définie comme une discipline synthétisant une variété de thèmes (sociales, arti ...
EE-583: Spacecraft avionics architecturesThe course presents and analyses the different systems, architectures and components of spacecraft avionics (on board data handling and processing systems) controlling and commanding spacecraft and payloads (instruments). It will study typical bus structur ...
ENG-421: Fundamentals in systems engineeringIntroduction to systems engineering using the classical V-model. Topics include stakeholder analysis, requirements definition, concept selection, design definition and optimization, system integration and verification and validation. This class is part of ...
