Tehran Seeks BRICS Candidates for Space Projects

Iran has initiated a targeted space-sector training initiative for students from BRICS nations—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—as part of its wider effort to expand scientific collaboration and build technical capacity.

Reports indicate that the Iranian Space Research Centre (ISRC), which comes under the Iranian Space Agency, sought applications for 32 academic and research training positions. These include 10 undergraduate, 11 master's, and 11 PhD slots in space-related disciplines.

The programme, which began in October 2024, focuses on areas such as satellite systems design, space mechanics, and data analysis.

While the existence of the programme has been confirmed, no official data has been made public about how many students, including Indians, have enrolled or which BRICS nations they represent.
