About SDU Galaxy
SDU Galaxy is a network of SDU researchers and students interested in space.
At SDU Galaxy we create synergy by allowing interactions between space industry, research and education. As a cross-faculty network we combine engineering, science and health to conduct research and educate students as well as researchers to improve life on earth by learning in space!
If you are part of SDU and would like to join the network, don’t hesitate to contact us from the list of SDU Galaxy affiliates below:
