Including the Aurora in Spacecraft Orbit Prediction
Supervisory Team. Hugh Lewis (SoE), Daniel Whiter (P&A), Robert Fear (P&A). Project description. Read more
Spacecraft Trajectory Optimisation
The University of Auckland is developing a research programme in low delta-v spacecraft trajectory optimisation. We are looking for a PhD candidate to continue work in this area and develop our existing algorithms. Read more
Electric Propulsion Systems for Small Spacecraft
The University of Auckland is conducting research into electric propulsion systems for small spacecraft. We are looking for a PhD candidate to research the miniaturisation of a high-Tc superconducting magnetoplasmadynamic drive and its subsystems. Read more
Motion Planning in Autonomous Robots
The project will focus primarily on Autonomous Robots. The general research theme involves theoretical and experimental study of Autonomous Vehicles with emphasis on advanced motion control for unmanned vehicles. Read more
Plasma Propulsion for Space Applications
The University of Auckland is conducting research into electric propulsion systems for small spacecraft. Read more
Diamond coatings for antibacterial applications in Space
Applications are invited for a three-year Postgraduate studentship, supported by the Lloyds Registrar Foundation and Teer Coatings Ltd, to be undertaken within the School of Engineering at University of Leicester. Read more
Space Situational Awareness
Space debris is defined as all human-made objects including fragments that are non functional. Today, the global dimension of the problem is internationally recognised, and active control of the space debris environment has been deemed necessary to sustain safe space activities in the future.

Fully funded PhD in Satellite Optical Communications and Payload Processing
Fully funded PhD in Satellite Optical Communications and Payload Processing. Title. A 3.5-year fully funded (home rate) PhD on “Integration of free space optical links with telecommunication satellite on-board processor” at UCL in collaboration with Airbus Defence and Space. Read more
KESS 2 East Research Masters: Satellite orbital determination using ground-based radio receivers
This is a funded MbyRes, including a generous stipend and tuition fees, with well-resourced circumstances for a successful scholarship. Read more
Space Weather Forecast
The term 'Space Weather' refers to the conditions of environment in the vicinity of the Earth and to processes that may initiate far away (for example at the Sun) but can affect the geospace environment. Read more
Space Systems
The Space Systems Laboratory (. http://ssg.group.shef.ac.uk/ssg2013/index.htm). Read more
Jupiter Plasma Environment
It is currently accepted that majority of visible matter in the Universe is in the state of plasma. However, with our present level of technology only the plasma within the solar system can be subjected to in-situ measurements by spacecraft. Read more
Dynamical Processes in the Geo-space Plasma
The terrestrial magnetosphere is formed as a result of the interaction between the magnetic field of the Earth and the solar wind (quasineutral flow of electrons and ions from the Sun). Read more
Co-crystal Minerals on Titan: Structure, Spectroscopy, and Photochemistry.
Opportunities are available for international or New Zealand candidates to perform laboratory-based research in the Ennis Lab toward the characterization and chemistry of co-crystal minerals located on Saturn’s moon Titan. Read more
Mechanics of soft solids and structures under large deformation
Background. Solid materials that can undergo large deformations are ubiquitous in nature and are widely used to manufacture engineering components, devices and structures. Read more
