Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Research Centre

As part of the cooperation between Azercosmos and Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Research Centre (MBRSC) of the United Arab Emirates, an exchange program is being implemented for undergraduate students from Azerbaijani universities in the fields of space, aerospace innovations, and technical sciences. Operating since 2006, MBRSC is involved in the creation, development, and operation of Earth observation satellites, as well as the preparation of scientific data. Among the center's global products are DubaiSat-1, DubaiSat-2, and KhalifaSat, which was launched into orbit in 2018. The MBZ-SAT, launched into orbit at the end of 2023, is one of the world's most high-resolution imaging satellites.

Space Missions

In 2021, MBRSC aimed to collect important scientific data about the Martian atmosphere with the "Hope Probe" (Emirates Mars Mission), the first Arab mission to reach Mars orbit. This mission also implements the development of the "Mars 2117" program. In 2022, MBRSC, under the "Emirates Lunar Mission," landed the "Rashid Rover" on the Moon's surface, becoming the fourth worldwide. To invest in human capital in the space sector, MBRSC launched the "UAE Astronaut Program" in 2017. In 2019, the first Emirati astronaut, Hazzaa AlMansoori, carried out a flight to the International Space Station.

Research Internship Program for Students

MBRSC offers the “Undergraduate Research Internship Program,” which allows students to gain practical experience in space, aerospace, IoT, artificial intelligence, STEAM, and technical sciences. As part of the program, students complete a one-week internship at MBRSC, participating in research projects related to Earth, Mars, and the Moon under the guidance of international scientists. The program also includes a mandatory training course called "REU Boot Camp." After successfully completing the program, students can earn academic credits, gain the opportunity to work with the MBRSC scientific team, and receive special certificates. This experience expands their future scientific research opportunities.
