ALEX AQUIETA NUÑEZ ECUADOR Systems Engineering I chose ISAE-SUPAERO since it appears to me as the most prestigious and well-known university in Europe for aerospace academic and research programs. Personally, I had the dream to come to France a long time ago and I applied for the MAE, attracted by the opportunity to obtain a scholarship to cover my studies (which I succeeded!) In my opinion, the most valuable strength of the program is firstly the provided link between the institute and industry. Having the chance to be trained by experienced professionals from the aerospace industry gives an incredible advantage at the time of looking for some practical solutions instead of only theoretical analysis, plus this link eases your job search upon completion of your studies. The multicultural environment within this program is another very enriching asset and finally, the well-equipped facilities when it comes to putting knowledge into practice (laboratories, wind tunnels, etc.). Willing to complement the technical knowledge acquired during my academic training with a managerial perspective and to acquire a global vision of business within the aerospace industry, I carried out my internship at Expleo, an engineering consulting company. I worked in the field of project management support. In 2023 I am working as a Project Manager at Expleo group, subcontracted by Airbus Defence & Space, in charge of managing and delivering activities within the scope of Space and Connected Intelligence. Thanks to my academic training and experience, I perform a key role, liaising between the technical team and the business direction. In the future, I plan to continue to focus on the management side of the industry. MIRIAM SCARANO ITALY Aerospace Structures ISAE-SUPAERO, with its reputation as a pioneering institution in aerospace engineering and its location in the main European aerospace hub, represented for me the chance to immerse myself in a multicultural environment while shaping my academic path surrounded by excellence. I specialized in Aerospace Structures, and I did my Research Project on the automatic sizing of a Vertical Tail Plane for an A320 aircraft. It was my first approach to research and a posteriori, I can say it was a great learning experience. My Research Project was presented at an international conference and provided me with the opportunity to publish my first scientific paper. What I got from this Master’s program is above all my initial expectations. Not only did I refine my knowledge, but I was also supported to conduct my internship abroad in Canada and to launch my career through forums, mock interviews, CV review sessions as well as interaction with industry-leading experts. Not to mention the social network it allowed me to build around me, which enriches my life every day. Currently, I work as an Aerospace Engineer for ALTEN, a sub-contractor for Airbus. My ambition is to become a manager overseeing a meaningful project in aviation. / 17 /
