Gathering, structuring, and analyzing the space-related educational programs and their courses at the Bachelor, Master, Phd, and continuous education levels.

The competitiveness and innovation of the EU space sector depend on high educational standards and the availability of skilled professionals in the field, as well as the possibility for these professionals to enhance and update their skills through their careers to adapt to changing circumstances. This paper summarizes the collection and analysis of different educational programs in the space sector across the EU-27+UK. We identified and analyzed 3591 courses offered by 132 Degree Programs (DPs) at Bachelor (25 DPs) and Master (107 DPs) levels, 19 PhD programs, and 60 continuous education courses. The identified programs, learning objectives, and course descriptions have been mapped across different segments of the value chain of space activities (upstream, midstream, and downstream) and space-relevant knowledge domains and knowledge areas taxonomy. We created a structured and curated online catalog, that allows users to search, and retrieve the education offers in the space-related sectors.
