VIRTUAL DESIGN CENTER


Virtual Design Center (VDC) of Space Engineering for pupils, students and enrollees of Tomsk Polytechnic University is the community connecting proactive and ambitious young people who are not indifferent to the space topic. The core purpose of this community is to increase the interest of pupils and students at the space technology through the working with real projects. This center is an example of educational practice where learners who have not received professional skills yet are able to get new knowledge and participate in the creation of spacecraft elements and systems.

The small spacecraft was developed and printed using 3D-printers as part of student project. Mission Control Center (MCC) which was created by students in cooperation with instructors allows getting the telemetry and signals from satellites. Virtual Design Center provides the way for every interested student to realize their potential and hold everybody`s hands to space exploration.


Mission Control Center of TPU

The main goal of the MCC of TPU is to create training and demonstration system for flight control of small spacecrafts which provides:

  • An integrated approach for training of young specialists and scientists at the space industry;
  • Education process which is based on actual flight control data at all stages of flight;
  • Ability to analyze the state of the spacecraft systems and the results of the flight programme;
  • Ability to solve various scientific problems and accompany scientific experiments which are conducted on small spacecrafts;
  • Applied research and improving satellite control processes.

Mission Control Center allows involving interested enrollees, students and young scientists of Tomsk Polytechnic University to space problems in practice, thus, promoting of the national rocket and space industry achievements and innovative technologies.

Trained at the MCC TPU students of different majors will be prepared to work in leading Russian Enterprises of the space industry: the S.P. Korolev Rocket and Space Corporation "Energiya", Corporation "M.F. Reshetnev Information Satellite Systems", Scientific and production Center "Polus", the S.A. Lavochkin Research and Manufacturing Association and others. Also, students could work at the Enterprises using information and telecommunication space technology, technology of geological research from space, environmental monitoring, etc.
