Auburn University is launching a graduate certificate in space systems through the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering, starting Fall 2025.

Offered in partnership with COSAM, this three-course program is designed for professionals from all backgrounds who want to build expertise in satellite design, space missions and system operations.

Part of Auburn’s growing space education and research efforts, the certificate supports the state’s expanding space industry — especially in Huntsville.

So neat to watch these beautiful children paint and design the Auburn University Rocketry Association’s rockets to be used in upcoming NASA competitions. @AuburnEngineers

[ULA @ulalaunch]

Yesterday, ULA President and CEO @torybruno met with students from @auburnengineers about #VulcanCentaur, the post scarcity future of humanity and his start in space!

@AeroWomen Auburn University Aerospace is searching for faculty with an interest in aerodynamics and propulsion. We would love to receive applications from this amazing group of scientists and engineers. https://t.co/Pg85va8kkn

Masks really do help! Keep it up!

[Bama Tracker: Alabama COVID-19 @BamaTracker]

The "Probable" case count has risen a lot recently. Check out this New Cases per day chart that includes Probable cases and a new 7-day avg line. https://t.co/mALP8XARlP

Well, aerospace engineering senior Weston Craig just went ahead and got a Navier-Stokes equation tattooed on his arm... #GinnSkin

New research suggests that face coverings help reduce the transmission of droplets, though some masks are more protective than others.

I just read MLK’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail. I’m 43 years old and wish I would have read this many years ago. Better late than never. Much of it still applies today. It definitely helps me better understand the BLM movement.

If you’re looking for something to watch, try watching Dark on Netflix. One of my favorite shows of all time. Has some ideas/elements similar to Lost, but quite unique on its own. It’s in German, but you won’t notice if you’re used to watching tv with subtitles turned on. #Dark

Wear a mask

[Rich Davis, PhD, D(ABMM), MLS🧫🦠 @richdavisphd]

What does a mask do? Blocks respiratory droplets coming from your mouth and throat.

Two simple demos:

First, I sneezed, sang, talked & coughed toward an agar culture plate with or without a mask. Bacteria colonies show where droplets landed. A mask blocks virtually all of them.

Persistence pays: After struggling to find an internship, Dremere Woods, #engineering major at @AuburnU, was able to shine at GE Aviation. Woods has spent the last few months working to find true, real-world customer solutions. @AuburnEngineers #aviation https://t.co/d321SscUoy

@woaaofficial @WomeninAero I'd love to have a diverse pool of applicants for our current AE faculty position search at Auburn University. It's an exciting time to join our department with a unique opportunity to lead and have an immediate impact. https://t.co/AdLn4vuJZE

If you’re happy and you know it, you might be an Auburn student. @ThePrincetonRev recently ranked @AuburnU enrollees as the happiest in the country based on 140,000 surveys that asked participants to rate everything from dorm life to classroom experience.
