Great Course

Rated 4 out of 5

I`m pretty satisfied with the Space Architecture and Design Course.

The Lectures are insightful and focus on certain things more in depth than i would have expected, given the time limits. My favorite part were the suggested reading lists that compliment the discussed topics very well. CAAS was new to me and i feel inspired to deepen my knowledge.

Thank you!!

Clear and well-explained content, but not enough elaborate, high overview.

This is perfect for entry-level people.
