The program objective was to train Spanish graduates at the ESA in order to create professionals in the space industry, therefore reinforcing the technological know-how in this field.
The fellowship was an initiative of the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation, together with the CDTI (Centre for the Development of Industrial Technology). It was part of the Subprogram of specialisa
The fellowship programme, shich is no longer running, was called in Spanish "Becas de Especialización en Organismos Internacionales".[1] Aside from the ESA, it also offered the beneficiary traineeships in a number of other research institutions across Europe such as CERN, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory or the European Southern Observatory.

The programme lasted up to 2 years, during which time the trainee is integrated in an ESA section under the supervision of an ESA staff member. At the end of the programme, the beneficiary is specialised in a space-related topic and therefore has a wide range of opportunities to develop his or her career in the sector, either in the industry or as part of the ESA.
