This course straddles the boundary between engineering and public policy related to space. It presents space policy and the effects that policy has on engineering decisions. It presents the underlying space systems engineering principles that necessitate space policy. Space is a highly technical and nonintuitive domain. Professionals working in any space-related field should have a basic understanding of the relationship between engineering and international public policy. EP students have the opportunity to enroll in this one-of-a-kind course which was developed in partnership with the JH School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS). This course focuses on the intersection of space systems engineering and policy, and will be offered for credit as an elective in both the EP SSE Program and SAIS. Students have the option to attend in-person at the Bloomberg Center in Washington, D.C. or synchronously online.
