USC positions undergraduate students at the forefront of space exploration by hosting the Rocket Propulsion Laboratory. This was the first student organization to successfully cross the von Karman line with one of its own rockets. Furthermore, the Viterbi School of Engineering partners with the Air Force ROTC, the premier detachment in placing students in the United States Space Force.
CREST conducts cutting-edge research in fields relevant to space exploration strategy and operations, such as remote sensing, ISAM, visualization, systems engineering, and innovation portfolios.
USC CREST is a collaboration of the Viterbi School of Engineering; the Dornsife College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences; and the Sol Price School of Public Policy. Faculty and staff across the university advance the understanding, exploration, and use of space.
