    Dear Suyash, Why not, if you fulfill the eligibility criteria for NASA, then can go for NASA after aerospace engineering from LPU. The LPU degree is valid worldwide.

LPU has recognised this and developed the curriculum in consultation with the industry. It has even set up a center for space research with a mission control facility. LPU has set an ambitious goal of developing a satellite LPUSAT-1, which will be launched next year (2021) The Center will enable students and r
