Postgraduate courses / Summer School	Organisator_in	Space Architecture: Designing a Lunar Habitation System	10/2021	11/2021	AIAA Short Course: Space Architecture: Designing a Lunar Habitation System \| In this new online course you will learn about the development strategies and design challenges of locating and building lunar habitats. Space Architects will present material on how the transportation system, site selection, and environmental factors influence the shape, size, and growth of lunar bases.The emphasis will be on designing for human occupation of our closest neighbor. There will be a discussion of different approaches to site improvement, proximity to landing zones, solar and nuclear electrical power options, and radiation protection. Furthermore, the architectural accommodations for EVA and rovers will be presented.This course will offer methods of integrating, maintaining, and upgrading habitat subsystems. Each of the subsystems will be described with particular focus on the Environmental Control Life Support system, Crew Systems, and Health Maintenance systems. In addition, studies and design concepts for accommodating human factors in lunar gravity will be presented. In order to sustain habitat operations, the approaches for logistic resupply and crew rotation will be discussed.
Postgraduate courses / Summer School	Organisator_in	Space Architecture: Designing a Mars Habitation System: Challenges and Consequences	10/2025	11/2025	AIAA Short Course: Space Architecture: Designing a Mars Habitation System: Challenges and Consequences \|This course explores the design, planning, and operational challenges of establishing human habitation on Mars. Experts in space architecture will discuss the unique constraints and opportunities of designing a Martian habitat, including mission planning, environmental hazards, and long-term sustainability strategies.Online: https://aiaa.org/courses/space-architecture-designing-a-mars-habitation-system/
Postgraduate courses / Summer School	Organisator_in	Space Architecture: Designing an Orbital Habitation System: Challenges and Consequences	10/2023	11/2023	AIAA Short Course: Space Architecture: Designing an Orbital Habitation System: Challenges and Consequences \| This course covers the development strategies and design challenges of locating and building orbital habitats. Space Architects present material on how the transportation system, mission planning, and environmental factors influence the architecture of the orbital habitats in shape, size, and growth.The course offers methods of integrating, maintaining, and upgrading habitat subsystems, with particular focus on the Environmental Control Life Support system, Crew Systems, and Health Maintenance systems. The instructors present studies and design concepts for accommodating human factors in micro gravity, including for non-professionals (tourists), and discuss logistics for resupply and crew rotation to sustain habitat operations.
