2nd SAASST Summer Students Internship Graduation

The Sharjah Academy for Astronomy, Space Sciences, and Technology organized a 2nd special seminar for eight students finishing their six-week summer internships. Four of these students have joined the “Meteorite Center,” three the “CubeSat Laboratory,” and one student the High Energy Astrophysics  Laboratory. Even though they came from an engineering background, the students showed a great understanding of their research work with excellent space sciences presentations. The experience they gained in doing space sciences research will be long felt in their future work.

 

For the meteorite center, the students were under the supervision of Mrs. Aisha Al-Owais, Maryam Essa, Salma Subhi. For the High Energy Astrophysics, Dr. Antonios Manousakis was the direct supervisor along with two research assistants, Ms. Noora Al-Ameri and Ms. Maryam Al-Qasemi.
