Abstract :A recent report on the global road map for 2015-2025 commissioned by COSPAR and ILWS emphasized the growing appreciation that the environmental conditions that we call space weather impact the technological infrastructure that powers the coupled economies around the world insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Carolus, 2015);. Since space borne theoretical and practical problems are complicated enough, an up to date science and engineering curricula may need to be considered to cope with such cases. The program/curricula is meant to combine basic sciences, space sciences and technology under a system engineering umbrella. In short, the objective of this program is to produce graduates who will be capable of tackling space programs with deep confidence in an integrated and interdisciplinary manner. In other words, the graduates will be able to take care of these problems from a broad-wide spectrum including for example, space sciences, such as space weather on one side, and very specific technological problems, such as space debris on the other side. So, in this paper we propose an engineering education program.
