studying 11 taking bio maths (1st group) want to become astronaut or astronomer..can getting high marks in jee exam will help me to become in stream of astronomy..or ...what should i do..Most of them telling that taking aerospace or aeronautical engineering is hard to get job....
Dear aspirant,
Yes, it is true in india aeronautical engineering doesn't have much scope but if you are entering a college of that level then definitely no one can stop you getting placed. So I would suggest to give jee mains and crack jee advanced to get into the iits because there is least chance of getting unplaced or rather negligible. If you are going for jee mains iiest shibpur will also be a great college for that.
can I do mtech in astrophysics after doing BTech aerospace engineering as i want to become astronomer .......?
Hi Aspirant,
The eligiblity criteria for Mtech in Astrophysics.A B. Tech or B.E. degree in a field deemed related to the given subject from a university recognized by AICTE.The eligiblity for Mtech Astrophysics is that The candidate must have passed class 12th or equivalent from a recognized board. The candidate must have studied Mathematics and Physics as the main subjects in class 12th.
Hope it helps!!
Can I became a astronomer by doing BTech in aerospace engineering......?
No, after BTech in Aerospace you become a Aerospace Engineer or later on go on to take roles of Aeronautical/Aviation Technologists.
As far as career as an Astronomer is concerned, you need to preferably pursue Physics and Astrophysics/Astronomy in your Graduation and Postgraduation followed by a Career in Research.
how can I become an astronomer after 10th? which degree should I take after 12th? and also can an astronomer become astronaut?
Hello,
To become an astronomer you need to take Science group in 11th and 12th with maths and Physics.
Next I will list out some of the courses (UG, PG< etc) that you can do after your 12th:
UNDERGRADUATE
-
B.Sc in Astrophysics – 3 year full-time course
-
B.Sc in Astronomy – 3 year full-time course
-
B.Tech in relevant Engineering
MASTERS
-
M.Sc Astronomy
-
M.Tech (Astronomy and Space Engineering)
DOCTORAL
- PhD. in Astronomy
- PhD. in Astronomy and Astrophysics
- PhD. in Astrophysics
- PhD. in Atmospheric Science and Astrophysics
SOme of the top colleges that offer courses in astronomy are:
- Indian Institute Of Astrophysics (IIA), Bangalore
- Tata Institute Of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai
- Raman Research Institute (RRI), Bangalore
- National Centre For Radio Astrophysics, Pune
- Inter-University Centre For Astronomy And Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune
- Institute of Physics (IOP), Bhubaneswar
-
Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), Bangalore
Good Luck
I am aspiring to be an astronaut. currently, I am studying in class 12. will opting for aeronautical engineering do me any good? which is the best type of engineering i should opt for to ensure the astronaut career path? are aeronautical and aerospace different engineering courses? which is better?
Hello,
To become an astronaut a bachelor’s degree from a recognized university, either in engineering, physics, mathematics, computer science, chemistry or biology (STEM field), or Aeronautical/Aerospace engineering. But a higher university degree like Master’s/PhD will be of added value.
Now coming to the two courses, Aerospace is a branch of engineering, where you get to learn design, building, testing and maintenance of civil aircraft, missiles, space shuttles, rockets, space stations and other such units. On the other hand, Aeronautical engineering is a sub division field of Aerospace Engineering and deals with the study of designing and building aircraft such as aeroplanes and helicopters. In simpler words Aeronautical engineering Relates to machines that fly within the earth’s atmosphere, wheres as Astronautical engineering includes the study related to spacecraft such as rockets, space stations and shuttles.
Now a degree in both the fields would be fine, but it would be better to do it in Aerospace Engineering.
Also if it is your dream to become an astronaut, you should also keep in mind that physical fitness plays an important role and so it is very much important that you take care of your health and maintain fitness.
Below I will share a link where you can find some of the best colleges in India that provide courses in Aerospace engineering:
If you want to consider a degree in Aeronautical, then you can find the best colleges for the same from the below shared link:
Hope that you will make India proud one day
Good Luck
how to become rich regarding of space courses.....please reply experts....
Hey there!
Space courses are quite tricky because there are not a lot of job opportunities in the big leagues. If you study from a really good institute then only you'll earn a lot of money in that field. Other than that you can also do reasearch work in universities after completion of your course that also offers a decent pay.
salary of an astronomer per month in tqmil nadu
Hi Praveen,
The average salary of an astronomer in Tamil Nadu is INR 50,000 per month. While the minimum salary is around INR 30,000 per month and maximum salary of an aerospace engineer in Tamil Nadu is around INR 8,00,000 or much more depending upon higher qualification and experience.

Now Im studying intermediate 2nd year mpc, which course is useful after intermediate to become an astronaut
Hey!
The minimum requirement for an astronaut is bachelor's degree in any of the courses for example engineering, biological science, physical science, or mathematics etc. You have to work super hard for becoming astronaut at NASA as the competition is the toughest.And to be selected as an astronaut there are several physical parameters,one has to qualify ,which are essentially required so you have to focus on those aspects as well.
For becoming an astronaut you can pursue any bachelor's degree but as you are from MPC stream you can go for B.tech in the related field or B.Sc. honors/major in Physics with Mathematics as a secondary subject and in future you will be able to choose the major field like Astrophysics,Astronomy etc.
Hope this helps
How much an astrophysicist earns in India???????and how much an astronomer earns ? And plz tell the highest paying field in ISRO...plz ..
hi,
An early career Astrophysicist with 1-4 years of experience earns an average total compensation of Rs 508,682 based on 18 salaries. A mid-career Astrophysicist with 5-9 years of experience earns an average total compensation of Rs 450,000 based on 6 salaries. working in the field of space research can earn average annual salaries ranging from Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 6.12 lakh.
Astronomers on an average earn Rs 8 lakh to Rs 10 lakh annually. working in the field of space research can earn average annual salaries ranging from Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 6.12 lakh.
An ISRO Scientist gets approximately 1lakh rupees in hand salary which clearly suggests that it is a high paying job.
accurate salary of an astronomer who have low experience ..and high experience...per month...can get more job vaccancies...is this eay to become astronaut or astronomer .....
Dear Aspirants ,
we are really sorry to say that we are unable to share accurate salary of astronaut because we all know the fact of salary depends upon lots of factors such as experience ,employer ,skills ,designation and how you will crack your interview .
If we go through the the minimum then it will starts from 7-8 lpa to 14-15 lpa but this figure will increase after gain experience and as per your designation .Employments are is little bit slow because only few employers are hire but its not mean they are not hiring but they are not hiring in bulk amount ,so you should give some extra effort for that .
Hope it will helpful
thanks
