We are recruiting two talented and highly motivated bachelor students to do a rocket thesis. You will take part in all aspects of a rocket mission; from building and preparing a scientific instrument, through testing and integration of the instrument on the rocket, to the actual launch and post flight data analysis. The G-Chaser student rocket will be launched from Andøya Space Center in January 2019 as part of the Grand Challenge Initiative (GCI).

This opportunity is open to students who plan to apply for a master's degree program in Space Physics or ELDAT (elektronikk og datateknologi) starting 2017. Since the GCI project starts with a kick-off camp at Andøya Space Center in May 2017, we need to recruite two motivated students now.
