ORBIT : An All-Things-Space Career Fair

For the first time the career fair ORBIT will be organized, by KTH Space Center and THS Armada. At the career fair, you will have the opportunity to interact with leading companies and other operations within the space industry, learn more about what they do and discover what it's like to work for them.

The purpose of ORBIT is to highlight that the space sector encompasses much more than just rockets, satellites, and astronauts. There are employment opportunities in various disciplines, and anyone can work with space! With the growing space industry, the benefits of satellite data are spreading across multiple sectors, contributing to environmental and climate-related planning, as well as forestry and agriculture. Additionally, there is an increasing demand for advanced computer systems, electronics, and satellite antennas to support modern infrastructure.

On April 23rd the ORBIT career fair will be organized for the first time, by KTH Space Center and THS Armada. ORBIT will take place between 10-16 on April 23rd in Nymble, on the 2nd floor.
