Bachelor of Space Science

Program Overview

There is substantial government and industry investment in space science technology, highlighting the growing gap in skills, both in Australia and internationally.

RMIT's Bachelor of Space Science will develop critical skills in space science and technology, connecting the upstream (build/launch) and downstream (application of space-related products and services) industries.

There is no degree quite like this one in Australia. We lead the way in both space science and engineering research. We provide a unique mix of physics, engineering, geospatial science, mathematics, statistics and specialised space studies.
