Publications

As a Carnegie Research-1 university and longstanding member of the American Association of Universities (AAU), Pitt considers scholarship of primary importance, where innovations in basic and applied research as well as education are featured in refereed journal articles and conference papers.

This page (presently under construction) features a database of scholarly publications showcasing a wide variety of space research and education of impact from Pitt faculty and students. 

In addition, as part of our ongoing Pitt Space Seminar Series, presentations (both slides and video) from our various speakers in the space community are posted.
