Description
Launched in 2016, the Auckland Programme for Space Systems (APSS) is designed for undergraduate students of all fields of study throughout the University of Auckland to collaborate to reach a common goal – contributing broadly towards the field of space research.
Second and third year undergraduate students are invited to form teams, work together to identify a societal need, and design a solution using a CubeSat, a 10 × 10 × 10cm, 1kg cube. Students from all faculties are invited to participate – no experience in engineering is necessary. Upon completion, the satellite will be launched into space by an orbital provider.
