They travel to space where they conduct experiments or repair/replace parts of satellites. Aspirants who wish to become Astronauts needs to have a Bachelor’s degree in biological science, engineering, mathematics or physical science from a recognized university. After graduation, the candidates may appear for aptitude tests held by the NASA for the recruitment of Scientists, Astronauts etc. Candidates can also find employment in ISRO as scientists and engineers. To join the ISRO, the candidates need to clear the Joint Entrance Exam set by the IIT’s. Eligibility : Citizenship: candidates who are joining the ISRO need to be Indian citizens Age limit: the candidate should be atleast 21 years at the time of joining.

Dear Utkarsha, You need to pursue your graduation in Aerospace/ Aeronautical engineering. For admission in a bachelor’s degree, the candidate must have passed the higher secondary school certificate (10+2) examination with science subject such as biology, maths and chemistry. For IITs, It is mandatory to qualify in the Joint Entrance Examinations (J.E.E). The duration for this course is 4 years. Some of its specialized fields are: - Aerospace Propulsion Structural Analysis Electronic Systems Ground Vehicle Systems Transportation Systems Aerodynamics and Fluid Dynamics Aircraft Structures and Materials For the list of top institutes offering BE Aeronautical Engineering, kindly refer to the below link <a href="https://www.shiksha.com/top-aeronautical-engineering-colleges-in-india-rankingpage-49-2-0-0-0" style='word-wrap:break-word;'>https://www.shiksha.com/top-aeronautical-engineering-colleges-in-india-rankingpage-49-2-0-0-0</a> Hope this helps. Thanks All The Best!
