The purposes of the Academic Research Centers (ARCs) of Excellence are to promote and facilitate education, research activities and collaborations with academic, private and public institutions to support human migration to space. The ARCs of Excellence involve faculty and staff from one or more departments, graduate students, experienced scientists, space engineers, professors, managers, experts in space law and policy, and a growing international group of researchers. We are establishing a multi-disciplinary collaborative research program by bringing together explorers working on space research areas at Kepler Space Institute and beyond, connecting industry with innovators, to address the challenges of the 21st Century on Earth and in Space.
KSI aims to cultivate transformative impact on society through continuous innovation in education and research, with a shared commitment among all members of its community to promote the reverence for life and principles of equal opportunity, equity, and justice. We are dedicated to fostering an open and collaborative culture, providing students an experiential learning experience combining practical skills and rigorous academic study in a diverse and inclusive environment. We seek to build a better world through empowerment, vigilant protection of individual human rights and freedom of expression and inquiry.
