Hello aspirant.

you want to make your career as an astronaut, make your decision-making skills strong. To become an astronaut, you have to be adventurous, mentally and physically strong because the selection process is rigorous and very competitive.

After passing the 12th examination, you are required to choose the Bachelor’s Degree course in relevant areas of specialization. You can pursue a Bachelor's Degree in Aerospace, Aeronautical and Science & Technology. Admissions in these courses are offered on the basis of merit or entrance- exam conducted by the universities or at national level.

Students are required to select the college to pursue graduation in the STEM field and this can be done through proper research. Try to choose a college with industry tie-ups and collaborations so that one may gain internship and work experience while studying.
