About

How do we leverage ASU’s unique exploration assets and NASA mission involvement to provide students with an immersive and relevant learning environment that will give them practice and insight into the exploration process?

The ASU SpaceWorks course offers undergraduate students in ASU’s School of Earth and Space Exploration and Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering the opportunity to participate in NASA-mission-focused, project-based learning opportunities through sequential, semester-long workforce development classes. SpaceWorks is offered through the Interplanetary’s Technological Leadership degree.
