Short after starting my work experience in the European Space Agency
I had the opportunity to enroll into an Introduction to Spacecraft Systems
Engineering Course, from the University of Southampton (U.K.).
The course consisted in theoretical lectures and discussion groups, whereby a specific mission case studies were considered. The Objective of the course was to describe space systems engineering
as a discipline. It was not the intention to educate the students in any
particular narrow discipline, but rather to indicate the way in which the
individual disciplines fit together as a whole - or rather a system.

Elements of payload impact on vehicle design were also introduced,
as well as case studies of the different possible configurations for each
particular mission by the medium of interactive discussions.
