Career opportunities

Compared to the size of Austria, the aerospace industry is disproportionately strong in this country. In addition to individual international technology leaders, many smaller, highly specialized companies and institutions are based here that make important contributions to the success of space missions by providing research services. The Alpine republic also enjoys a fantastic reputation with the Paris-based European Space Agency (ESA).

As a programme graduate, your potential fields of activity include:

  • Research and production in companies that manufacture and supply equipment and expertise for space missions and Earth observation.
  • Research on and the development of probes, measuring instruments and satellite components in university and non-university research facilities.
  • Conducting analyses and modelling of satellite data for research institutions, public authorities and companies.
  • Performing management activities in space missions and Earth observation tasks.
