At CPSX we offer B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. programs.  Our undergraduate program in Planetary Science runs in conjunction with Earth Sciences and Physics and Astronomy. The small, down to Earth departments mean help is always nearby. Our collaborative graduate program allows students to study a range of topics within Planetary Science and Exploration, with supervisors from departments across campus.

CPSX students work mission control for a lunar analogue mission.

We provide opportunities to gain hands-on experience working at planetary analogue field sites, on planetary analogue missions, on real space missions, and in the laboratory, on a variety of research themes. In addition to our undergraduate and graduate level courses, we provide training to government and space industry employees, and Canadian astronauts.

Our courses feature classroom, laboratory, and field-based learning environments. Examples of courses include an intensive interdisciplinary 7-day Short Course in Planetary Science, and a Planetary Science Fieldschool, with an emphasis on comparative planetology through the study of terrestrial analogues.
