From dreams to reality: 20 years of ISU Team Projects

For more than 20 years the International Space University (ISU) has provided graduate-level training in all aspects of the space arena, with Team Projects playing an important role. Not only do they prepare participants with valuable organizational and project management skills but they also produce valuable studies on important topics for space agencies and industry that are most often a reflection of the current interests. In this paper we look back at 20 years of ISU Team Projects and discuss their value, relevance and how they reflect this period in the history of space activities.
