Hello,
Eligibility criteria for MS in astronomy and astrophysics in IIST -
A BTech, an MSc, or any other degree with a comparable value in the appropriate discipline is required.
Admission Process -
Thank You
Hello,
There are several ways to join ISRO as a scientist besides JEE Mains or Advanced. The fact is that ISRO directly hires students from IITs and IISC, making it simpler for you to get into ISRO if you attend one of these institutions. You would still be qualified for a position with ISRO if you studied engineering at any other reputable institution. You will need to study hard and gain the necessary information to be as productive as an IITian. To join ISRO as an engineering graduate, you must pass the admission test held by ISRO. ICRB (centralised Recruitment Board) conducts the test, and the GATE exam is also used for recruitment.
If you visit their official website, you may get a better sense of the eligibility standards and other specifications. If you didn't pass the JEE examinations, it's no issue; just get an engineering degree from a reputable university and start preparing for these entrance tests concurrently.
Good Luck!!
Hey Aspirant,
There is no separate entrance test for admission into IIST. You can get into the institute based on your JEE Advanced rank only.
Hope this is useful.
