Hello Usha,

The path is quite difficult but not impossible. For this you will have to take science in class 11th. You should prepare for NEET or JEE main well, and get into colleges such as IIST from where ISRO directly recruits students for the post of Junior Scientist. You also have the option to give KVPY exam. Clearing this will admit you to IIST or colleges such as IISC Bangalore. Colleges like this give you preference when you apply in ISRO. In case you are not able to make to these colleges, go for some other good college and prepare for ICRB exam. Take core branches such as CSE, MECHANICAL, EEE, or ECE. you can also get a chance by clearing GATE.

Hope this Helps

Dear candidate, you have the following options to become a research scientist/engineer at ISRO.

  • Get recruited into ISRO as Scientist/Engineer by one of the following three ways.
  1. Get admission in IIST for B.Tech (or M.Tech) in the branches it offers. Maintain good academic record and if there are requirmrnts you will get absorbed in ISRO
  2. ISRO recruits some freshers in campus drive from some IITs and NITs.
  3. Complete B.E./B.Tech from any other AICTE approved college in India,  give ICRB's exam for Scientist/Engineer for your stream, clear the         interview and get into ISRO.
  • Get selected as Junior Research Fellow (JRF) and if possible continue working as Scientist/Engineer.
  • Apply after completing your PhD.

All the best

Hope this helps
