263 Full-time Master's degrees in Astronomy & Space Sciences

Space Science
Space Science is the study of all planetary systems. Applications range from Earth observation satellites providing data on anthropogenic climate change, to space exploration missions and analyses of extraterrestrial materials that seek to answer the question: is there life elsewhere in the Galaxy? The UK Space Agency has identified substantial skills gaps in the current UK space sector.

Space Sciences and Astronomy
The Space Sciences and Astronomy Master’s programme at the University of Malta offers the possibility to tackle some of the major problems plaguing space science ranging from designing new radio astronomy antennas to be implemented in radio astronomy project to how alternative theories of gravity would modify cosmological dynamics.

Astrophysics
With Astrophysics at University of Hertfordshire you’ll develop a thorough grounding in fundamental physics while exploring cutting edge topics about the Universe, its constituents and structure, and humanity’s place within it.

Astrophysics
Taught topics reflect our world-leading strengths in theoretical, observational and instrumentational research and include Cosmology, Advanced General Relativity and Gravitational Waves, Instrumentation for Astronomy and Techniques in Astrophysics. The Astrophysics programme is offered at Cardiff University

Master of Geospatial Intelligence
Increase your knowledge of geospatial science, and strengthen your skills in location-allocation, dataset integration and modelling with the Master of Geospatial Intelligence program from Curtin University.

Graduate Diploma in Geospatial Intelligence
Learn how to manage spatial data and remotely sensed imagery with the Graduate Diploma in Geospatial Intelligence programme from Curtin University.

Electromagnetics, Fusion and Space Engineering
The Electromagnetics, Fusion and Space Engineering at KTH Royal Institute of Technology combines a strong foundation in electrical engineering with knowledge of electromagnetic fields, how they interact with matter and how to utilise them in technology. Students specialise in Microwave Engineering, Photonics, Plasma or Space.

Geosciences - Geospatial Analysis
The Geosciences - Geospatial Analysis course is offered at East Tennessee State University. All application materials must be sent to the ETSU School of Graduate Studies.

Astrophysics and Cosmology
This Astrophysics and Cosmology course from University of Padua provides a complete and updated view of the main fields of modern astrophysics, including astronomical detectors and techniques, black holes and neutron stars, cosmology, gravitation physics, planets, stars and galaxies.

Astronomy and Astrophysics
Taking advantage of generations of terrestrial and space-based instruments, the Master of Astronomy and Astrophysics trains students to study the origin, structure, and evolution of planets, stars, star systems, and the universe itself.

Astronomy
The purpose of the Astronomy M.S. and Ph.D. major offered by University of Nevada, Las Vegas, are to prepare students for a career in Astronomy or Astrophysics Research or in education at the university level.

Space Studies
The space sector plays an important role in economic, social, technological and scientific developments. The Master of Space Studies from KU Leuven corresponds to the needs of the sector by delivering highly skilled experts with a broad and in-depth interdisciplinary perspective.

Physics and Applied Physics
The Physics and Applied Physics programme at Virginia Commonwealth University offers traditional core physics courses and a variety of specialized electives emphasizing the department’s strengths in theoretical and experimental physics.
Astronomy and Data Science
In the master's specialisation Astronomy and Data Science you focus on development and application of new data-mining technologies, fully embracing modern astronomy as a data rich science. The Astronomy and Data Science master's programme is built on world-class computational astrophysics research as well as hightech industry expertise.
Astronomy
The Master of Science Degree in Astronomy at University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign is designed to give our admitted PhD students who entered without a Masters Degree the opportunity to achieve a solid background in astronomy, skills that can be applied in astronomy-related professions and experience in research.
Astronomy and Instrumentation
Working in astronomy puts you at the forefront of science. As our ambitions have grown, so have the technological challenges that enable us to further increase our understanding of the Universe. The overall goal is to fully understand the physical principles and performance of astronomical instruments and to contribute to the development of new instrumentation technologies.
Space Studies
The Space Studies track at Rice University is geared to help individuals increase their knowledge of space engineering, science, program management and policy.
