Building instruments is a common activity among Astronomers and is a specialized area of engineering. Electrical, computer, mechanical, and optical engineering are typically used in moderation. Knowledge of computer science can also be helpful because almost all astronomers crunch data.
It is ideal for a student to gain graduate-level proficiency in Math and Physics before focusing on Astronomy and Astrophysics. A BTech or BE engineer with an interest in Astronomy and Astrophysics can work as a research scholar in the field.
