AstroHub is excited to partner with the California Polytechnic University Lab to offer a unique training opportunity. This interactive workshop is led by Cal Poly Professor Pauline Faure. The Cal Poly CubeSat Lab (CPCL) co-developed the first handheld satellite, known as a CubeSat, in 1995. These satellites have revolutionized the space industry and today they are an industry standard. CPCL has launched 25 student-built satellites to date. After this workshop you will have the skills to start:
This course is specially adapted from CPCL’s 2-day training course to offer broader access to the space community.
Dr. Pauline Faure is Director of the CubeSat Laboratory and Assistant Professor in the Department of Aerospace Engineering, California Polytechnic University, San Luis Obispo. As a faculty member she teaches space engineering courses and advises students on thesis projects. Dr. Faure has 10 years experience designing, building and managing small satellite programs internationally.
Dr. Faure is in charge of Cal Poly’s annual, world-renowned CubeSat Developers workshop in San Luis Obispo. This workshop is an exciting opportunity for Dr. Faure and her team to offer timely, critical knowledge to the global space community.
Alicia is Cal Poly’s in-house expert on spacecraft licensing and regulations expert at CPCL. A graduate of Cal Poly, she has worked in launch integration at CPCL as well in satellite communications with the US Army.
Dave is a project manager at CPCL. He holds an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering from Cal Poly and has experience in payload integration, mission management and technical research.
Ryan Nugent is a Co-Principal Investigator of CPCL. He holds an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering from Cal Poly and leads development for satellite dispensers and manages support of NASA, ESA and commercial projects.
John Bellardo is Professor of Computer Science and Software Engineering and a Distinguished Scholar at Cal Poly. He has been worked on five Cal Poly CubeSats, as well as the NASA MarCO mission to Mars and Planetary Society’s LightSail 2.
Training the Workforce of the Future
“I was not sure what to expect because the class was taught remotely, but I was quite impressed with the entire process. I cannot express how great the instructor(s) was and the overall content of the material. The instructor(s) was incredibly knowledgeable and articulate. The facility was very professional and there were no problems with connectivity. I would definitely recommend this to my co-workers as well as friends. Thank you!”
“The Introduction to Cubesats course at AstroHub is an amazing opportunity for people who are looking to work in the New Space industry, because you get to learn from and interact with professionals who work on actual space hardware and have many missions under their belts. To me, this kind of access to knowledge for basically anybody is what lowering the barrier to entry looks like in practical terms. So far I am completely self-taught and have no formal training in engineering, so it was invaluable for me to hear what I’m getting right about Cubesats and which areas I need to focus on in my studies. Thanks for making this workshop happen!”
