Space internship launched for STEM and law students

Orbex, the Scotland-based orbital launch services company, has launched its annual internship programme, recruiting nine individuals to support its team of experts working towards Orbex Prime’s inaugural launch later this year.
The internship offers a unique opportunity for STEM and law students, to gain invaluable hands-on experience in Scotland’s space sector. Interns will work closely with the team developing the Prime rocket with roles spanning diverse areas of the business including Assembly, Integration and Test (AIT), Software, Legal, Avionics, Ground Segment Software, and Structures.
The internships are hotly contested in the industry with over 1,650 registering their interest in the programme over the last 12 months.
Phillip Chambers, CEO of Orbex, commented: “We’re very proud to offer this opportunity to individuals with a genuine passion for the space sector. We are entering the final stages of developing our Prime rocket and with our very first launch set for later this year, it’s an especially exciting time to join us.”
The paid 10-month programme is welcoming applications from talented students with space and engineering backgrounds.
