The Centre Spatial Universitaire (CSU) Montpellier-Nîmes (Montpellier-Nîmes University Space Center) is a division of the University of Montpellier. Its purpose is to educate students in space sciences through the design, production and testing of nanosatellites. The CSU was created to consolidate nanosatellite activities that were initiated in 2006 by the RADIAC (radiation and components) team of the Institut d'Electronique et des Systèmes, a research institute also affiliated with the university.
