Southern Hemisphere Space Studies Program
Conducted in partnership with the International Space University, the Southern Hemisphere Space Studies Program (SHSSP) is a five week intensive, live-in experience open to Australian and international participants from all disciplines.
Providing key information relevant for a professional career in the space industry, it focuses on space applications, policy and services, while giving a well-rounded overview of the principles and concepts involved in space science, space systems engineering and technology, space business and management and space legal and regulatory issues.
Throughout the five weeks, participants will hear from a range of invited experts on the principles and concepts involved in disciplines ranging from space sciences to space humanities, and deep-space exploration to space applications for our home planet. They will undertake hands-on workshops and field trips, including activities in areas such as local remote sensing data, GPS field exercises, satellite ground station operations and simulated legal, policy and commercial problem solving and debate. Participants will also undertake a group space research exercise and be given the opportunity to take part in authoring a White Paper.

The Graduate Certificate is specifically designed for those students who have completed the SHSSP Executive Certificate. Holders of the Executive Certificate will receive credit upon admission to the UniSA Graduate Certificate in Space Studies. In this program, students will have the opportunity to focus upon individual research emanating from the SHSSP White Paper.
