Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL)
University • Member since 2003

EPFL is Europe’s most cosmopolitan technical university. It welcomes students, professors and collaborators of more than 120 nationalities. EPFL has both a Swiss and international vocation and focuses on three missions: teaching, research and innovation. EPFL collaborates with an important network of partners, including other universities and colleges, secondary schools and gymnasiums, industry and the economy, political circles and the general public, with the aim of having a real impact on society.
The EPFL Space Center is the interdisciplinary hub that brings together all aspects of space education, research and innovation. It comprises two groups: eSpace and Space Innovation. The mission of eSpace is to promote space-related research, support EPFL’s space-affiliated professors, coordinate the Minor in Space Technologies, and manage the EPFL student teams. The mission of Space Innovation is to support space industries, academies and research and technologies organisations in Switzerland by coordinating and maintaining the network and offering access to cutting edge technologies, test facilities, continuing education and outreach activities.
