Who are we?Advantages
• Hands-on experience• Practical experiences• Practical ideas for thesis• Engineering, management, outreach• Real projects• Space industry standards (ECSS)• Review and feedback• Documentation• Trainings• Networking• Inspiration
Disadvantages
• Prolonged time of graduation• Low ratio of success• Difficulties with implementing new
methodology

Who are we?
Specialization
Given by programmes:• Deorbitaton systems• Small satellites• Thermal control for satellites• Satellite structures, mechanics, configuration• Small rovers• Satellite robotics, manipulators• Electronics• Communication• Satellites operation• Sounding rockets• Stratospheric balloons
National: • Small satellites• Small rovers• Satellite robotics, manipulators• Electronics
Who are we?
Alumnus:
• Master thesis related to space• Publications related to the projects & experiments• PhD studies• Young Graduate Trainees in ESA•Working on companies
• Applications & services• Engineering
• Facilitators (blogs, meetings with students)• Founders o SMEs• Founders of NGOs•Working on universities• Local leaders
Who are we?
Conclusionsin case of Polish example:
• It is difficult to estimate the impact of (ESA) educational programmes• Scientific results are not the best way to measure the impact
• Participation in one project could give an inspiration to start another• Thanks to students projects ’’space” is closer for public opinion• Network of alumni withstand for long time• Alumni think „out of the box” – complete goals faster, better, internationally - they are great team members for demanding projects • Many professionals projects could not start without alumni hands-on experience in space• It’s easy to develop new ideas in places, where is high number of alumni
