ARCSSTE-E

The centre, which carries two official names, African Regional Centre for Space Science and Technology Education in English (ARCSSTE¬E) and Centre for Space Science and Technology Education (CSSTE) aims to build capacities for applications of Space Science and Technology (SST) for sustainable national and regional development. This will be achieved by developing skills and knowledge in four prime areas of SST viz; Remote Sensing/Geographic Information System, Satellite Meteorology and Global Climate, Satellite Communications, and Basic Space and Atmospheric Sciences. For the purpose of accessing funds, logistics and other support services from the Federal Government of Nigeria, the Centre operates under the direct supervision of the National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA) of Federal Ministry of Science and Technology to undertake two major responsibilities; academic/research and educational/outreach in the area of space science and technology applications.
