Dual Degree Medical Doctorate/ Master of Aerospace Engineering (Bioastronautics)
Be Part of the Next Generation of Physicians
At the University of Colorado Space Health Sciences Program, we are redefining how medicine and engineering intersect to advance human space exploration. Our mission is to integrate science and technology across disciplines and domains—from physiology and behavioral health to habitat design and systems engineering—to meet the complex challenges of human spaceflight.
Through innovative educational programs, cutting-edge research, and operational collaborations, we prepare the next generation of physician-engineers, scientists, and explorers who will drive progress in this new era of space activity. From commercial low Earth orbit operations to future lunar and Martian missions, our work is focused on translating scientific discovery into practical solutions that sustain human health and performance in the most extreme environments.
Our vision is to build a collaborative ecosystem that empowers innovation, cultivates interdisciplinary expertise, and ensures that humanity’s expansion into space is safe, sustainable, and transformative for life both off and on Earth.
