What education is needed to become scientist ?

If you wish to become a scientist then you need to take the following steps:

Step 1: Complete 10+2 education with science stream

Step 2: Complete your Bachelors. You can either do a B.Tech, B.Sc, B.E. or an M.B.B.S in your desired discipline.

Step 3: Complete a masters degree in the specialisation of your choice. This is essential in order to become a better scientist as it will help in gaining more knowledge along with enhancing your skills.

Once you are done with your education you can join any research organisation by applying in it. If you work hard and focus on gaining knowledge you can become a part of ISRO as well.

All the best!

Making a career as a scientist need expertise in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. After B.Tech in Applied Sciences, it is possible to become a scientist, as a 4-year degree can be sufficient for a scientist’s job. A scientist’s role is to perform research in a specialised domain, it is necessary to have enhanced knowledge of the subject so a Master’s or a Doctoral degree would improve prospects to become a scientist.

The opportunities exist in NASA, ISRO and other Research Labs for well performed students.

Good Luck!

Hello yash,

For becoming scientist you'll usually need at least a 2:1 degree in a relevant science subject. Most research also have postgraduate qualification like an MSc, an MSCi or MBiol.
