Advanced master Systems Engineering (SEN)

The advanced master “Systems Engineering” provides the international aerospace industry with skilled professionals equipped to specify, design, deploy and maintain complex systems.

The programme develops a system approach with the capacity to federate and manage various, interwoven and complementary activities.

It prepares systems engineers to work in various industrial sectors including space, aeronautics, air traffic control, land transport systems, etc.

The training is open to Validation des Acquis et de l’Expérience (VAE) / validation of prior learning and experience.

The Advanced Master is accessible to persons with disabilities (PSH).
In the event that a learner is in a situation of disability, his or her needs (whatever they are educational, material, technical, human, etc.) are taken into account by the ISAE-SUPAERO’s Disability Advisor. ISAE-SUPAERO provides the expertise, the tools and the networks needed to facilitate the access to premises and resources, to prepare certifications and take examinations.

TESTIMONY

FLORIAN ROSELLI - Graduated in 2020

Why did you choose ISAE-SUPAERO and apply for this MS? What were your objectives?

As a general engineer, my deepest ambition was to combine my great interest for space and aeronautics to my field of study and professional career. I decided to apply for the Systems Engineering (SEN) Advanced Master while I was completing my last year of engineering studies in HEI-Lille. As a prestigious school in France and Europe about aerospace training, ISAE-SUPAERO seemed the obvious choice to me. The strong international alumni network, partner universities and companies offer an excellent environment to evolve and give rise to ambitious ideas.

The SEN Advanced Master seemed to be the most relevant with my background and ambition. Indeed, I was looking to broaden my skills in system design and architecture, requirements engineering and to acquire an overview on the multiple aspects of a project. Most of all, I deeply desired to inspire from other ways of working in order to become an active part of the rise of new challenges regarding space exploration/research and aeronautics.

According to your experience, what are the strongest assets of the Advanced Master?

First of all, I strongly believe that one the most driving force of this Advanced Master is the wealth of cultural diversity. I had the chance to meet and work with people from various countries and continents, to challenge myself with different working methods and most of all to inspire from their diversity and differences.

This Advanced Master clearly offers a high-level academic training resolutely turned towards the needs of the aerospace industry. Indeed, by combining academics approach and technical needs of field, the SEN Advanced Master offer a great coherence in a transdisciplinary way with concrete study cases and projects. Furthermore, the speaker’s diversity, expertise and passion, provide a solid basis and key competences to pursue your career and to strengthen your skills in Systems Engineering.

What are your career plans?

I am currently working at CNES the French Space Agency, for MEDES (Space Medicine), as Human Spaceflight and Operation Engineer. I first develop projects and experiments from various universities, scientists and companies for their implementation on board the International Space Station. Then my role is to support in real time the on orbit operations realized by the astronauts.

I will most likely pursue my career in the operational field and more specifically towards Human Spaceflight to become an active part of the challenges that space exploration offers.
