Each year two specific topics will be studied in depth and from various angles (legal, political, but also economic and technological). Several guest lecturers from various disciplines and involved with the subject will be invited, so that a global understanding can be obtained. The course will be conducted in the form of a case study and active participation from the students in the extensive discussions is required. Assessment is based on class participation. Examples of topics are: telecommunications, the International Space Station, space tourism, Galileo, etc.
