SELP 670 Spacecraft Design

3 semester hours

Fundamental knowledge of spacecraft design: configuration, design and inter-dependencies of subsystems, launch vehicle, and trade-offs between performance, cost, and reliability. Students will be exposed to a wide range of considerations including design, manufacture, test and operation, cost, performance, manufacturability. At the end of this course, the student will have a fundamental understanding of the factors influencing spacecraft design and will be able to evaluate the impact of trade-offs between subsystem requirements on the performance and cost at the system level. The course will be fast-paced and include both individual and team projects.
