Identity card
- Alumni Day France: Rosa Angélica CARDENAS SIERRA, ISAE-SUPAERO 2018 alumni
- First name, Last name: Rosa Angélica CARDENAS SIERRA
- Academic background: Aeronautics / Aerospace
- Nationality: Mexican
- Country of residence: France
- Position, company: R&T MFT Leader, Airbus Operations SAS
- Sector: Aerospace
- Training at ISAE-SUPAERO: Master in Aerospace Engineering
- Year of graduation: 2018
Can you tell us about your background?
I’m Mexican and very curious by nature!
An aeronautical engineer with a degree from the National Polytechnic Institute of Mexico, I continued my academic preparation with a Master in Aerospace Engineering at ISAE SUPAERO in France.
My professional career started in 2018 at Airbus Commercial in the Pylon Engineering team where I contributed to different activities for four years: Research & Technology (R&T), In-Service support, A321-XLR certification. In the summer of 2022, I moved over to Purchasing as R&T MFT Leader to coordinate R&T activities in the Aerostructures Fuselage scope. It’s a cross-functional role with the opportunity to contribute to the development of new technologies and the industrial system of tomorrow.
Why did you decide to pursue an international career?
My desire to discover and experience new things has always guided my decisions. What’s more, as I’m passionate about aviation, I’ve always wanted to work in the world capital of aeronautics, i.e. Toulouse.
What’s more, a profile with academic or professional experience abroad is more attractive to international companies. This is the case at Airbus, where multiculturalism is part of everyday life. An industry in contact with customers, suppliers and employees of different origins requires profiles capable of adapting to diversity and varied working methods.
For these reasons, and many others, such as acquiring new language skills and soft-skills, I decided to internationalise my career.
What advice would you give to someone looking for an international career?
Academic or professional experience abroad is a great advantage on a CV, but above all it’s a personal enrichment. So pack your suitcase and get your dreams off the ground!
One word that would define your career?
Enriching.

Arnaud Prost, ESA reserve astronaut and ISAE-SUPAERO alumnus: “I was incredibly lucky to be here”Fighter pilot and reserve astronaut with the European Space Agency (ESA), Arnaud Prost returned to his former school on Thursday March 28 to meet 200 secondary school students as part of the ISAE SUPAERO OSE program. It was an opportunity for him to recall the “great memories” of his student experience at ISAE-SUPAERO, his long-standing commitment to the student social outreach program and the “Aquanauts” scheme he set up with OSE l'ISAE-SUPAERO. And in passing, he offers a few words of advice to young people who might dream of following in his footsteps: “Don't let yourself be convinced that one of these paths isn't for you!” A 2017 graduate of ISAE-SUPAERO, Arnaud Prost is among those selected for the ESA Astronaut Class of 2022, alongside Sophie Adenot and Anthea Comellini, both also alumni of the school. They join other illustrious ESA astronauts who have already studied at the school: Thomas Pesquet, Luca Parmitano and Samantha Cristoforetti. Since 1970, ISAE-SUPAERO has contributed to the progress of the space age through its training, research and innovation activities. As the only organization in France to offer degree courses (engineering, master's, specialized master's, doctorate) covering all 22 space-related themes identified by CNES, the Institute offers a royal road to space careers.
