Space jobs in UAE: Astronauts tell university students to prepare for sector boom

The UAE's first two astronauts have told university students to be ready for opportunities as the country's space sector grows rapidly.

Hazza Al Mansouri, the first Emirati in space, and Sultan Al Neyadi also shared their experiences of becoming part of the nation's astronaut corps.

The UAE has propelled itself into the space sector in recent years and it boasts a successful Mars programme with its Hope probe orbiting the Red Planet.

Emirati space endeavours ahead include a lunar landing attempt, more satellite development, and an outer space simulation centre.

On Sunday, Maj Al Mansouri and Mr Al Neyadi spoke online to students of the Higher Colleges of Technology.

The astronauts are at Nasa's Johnson Space Centre in Houston, Texas, where they are training for long-haul space missions.

Maj Al Mansouri told students to be ready for opportunities to work in the field where many more jobs are expected.

“We’ve achieved a lot in the UAE in just 50 years. We’ve sent an astronaut into space, built our own satellites and sent a probe to another planet,” he said.

“We tell the world we are a nation with a lot of ambitions and a lot of capabilities. Work hard to achieve your dreams and be ready for opportunities.”

The UAE sent its first satellite, DubaiSat-1, into space in 2009, and sent the first Emirati into space 10 years later.

Maj Al Mansouri and Mr Al Neyadi spoke about their childhood dreams of becoming astronauts but they did not have a programme that paved the way to that profession.

Instead, Maj Al Mansouri became a fighter jet pilot, and Mr Al Neyadi became an IT professional.

Their dreams became reality in 2017, when the Mohammed bin Rashid Space Centre launched the UAE Astronaut Programme.

“I applied with no hesitation,” Mr Al Neyadi said. “Then, we progressed through a very tough selection process – medical, psychological and physical tests - they wanted the best person, as it was a big responsibility to carry.”

Maj Al Mansouri said the path "will not be easy" and the sector is now very competitive, with many Emiratis aspiring to be the next person to carry the flag into space.

More than 4,300 Emiratis applied to become part of the astronaut corps last year.

"You have to be ready because, if you're not, there will be other people who will grab that opportunity to achieve something amazing," Maj Al Mansouri said.

"As an astronaut, you have to have a lot of skills. You will be the plumber to fix any broken items on the space station, you have to be a scientist, a technician, an engineer and a test subject."

The booming space sector has also opened doors for engineers and scientists.

The UAE’s Mars mission set a career path for engineers in propulsion, spacecraft development, software and other specialisms, as well as space scientists.

Emiratis are now capable of building satellites and they are developing the Arab world's first lunar rover, called Rashid.

With more space missions in the pipeline, it is mostly Emiratis who are expected to benefit from the jobs created because a strong focus will be on building the capabilities of UAE nationals.

However, as the country looks to private space firms to set up bases in the Emirates, opportunities may also open up for expatriates, including work in space research and spacecraft design and manufacturing.

Red flags
  • Promises of high, fixed or 'guaranteed' returns.
  • Unregulated structured products or complex investments often used to bypass traditional safeguards.
  • Lack of clear information, vague language, no access to audited financials.
  • Overseas companies targeting investors in other jurisdictions - this can make legal recovery difficult.
  • Hard-selling tactics - creating urgency, offering 'exclusive' deals.
