Space Career Event (Space Research & Medicine)

The UCL Space Society, in partnership with the King's Space Society, is organizing a hybrid in-person/online career event during the week beginning on the 7th of March. Our objective is to give students an overview of the different careers and opportunities available in the space sector (Space research, technology, economy, law and policy).

Speakers are asked to prepare a 15/20mn presentation centered on their role, interests, and career path (see details below). After the presentations, there will be a 30 min Q&A session.

• What does your organisation/company do?
• What are you focusing on and what did you achieve as part of your current role?
• What personal education and career path did you follow to get where you are today?
• What advice would you give to university students interested in working in your area and in the space sector in general?
