LAUNCH YOUR
SPACECRAFT ENGINEERING CAREER
SFL APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM
The SFL Academy of Small Satellite Design offers an elite, two-year paid
apprenticeship program where you’ll design, build, test and operate real
spacecraft alongside experienced engineers. Gain the hands-on skills and
mission experience that top space companies are searching for.
SMALL SATELLITE DESIGN TRAINING
FOR A GROWING SPACE INDUSTRY
Sometimes opportunity knocks in a way that you never anticipated or expected. If you have
completed your undergraduate degree in engineering, computer science or other technical
field, the SFL Apprenticeship Program may be the accelerated path to a career in spacecraft
engineering that you have been looking for.
The SFL Apprenticeship Program is an intense two-year paid training program whose purpose
is to develop elite spacecraft engineers, capable of adapting to the demands of the
space industry in any capacity, whether in traditional space development, microspace or
newspace.
Those who complete the SFL Apprenticeship Program will have the skills that are in high
demand by top space companies the world over. A Certificate of Apprenticeship from SFL
signals to potential space industry employers that you are the best of the best and have the
design and hands-on spacecraft engineering experience that is virtually impossible to find.
In essence, you will become the needle in the haystack of applicants that space companies
are desperate to find.
Our view is that graduating students who are career-oriented are best served by a hands-on,
deep immersion in real-world spacecraft engineering versus the additional theory of a university
graduate program.
We look forward to receiving applications from candidates who have completed, or are now
completing, their undergraduate degree programs.
Sincerely,
Dr. Robert E. Zee, Director
