Astronaut - How to become an Astronaut?
An astronaut is someone who is given training by the spaceflight program to work as the pilots or as his team in a space craft. They travel to space where they conduct experiments or repair/replace parts of satellites.
Qualifying exam
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. They then need to obtain any one of the following degrees from renowned institutes like IISC or IIT.
Candidates can go for:
- PhD (Astrophysics).
- PhD (Geophysics).
- PhD (Metaphysics).
After graduation, the candidates can appear for the entrance exam which is held by the NASA for the recruitment of Scientists, Astronauts etc. Candidates can also find employment in ISRO. There are many openings in ISRO which is conducted for the recruitment of Scientists and Engineers. In order to join the ISRO, the candidates need to clear the Joint Entrance Exam set by the IIT’s.
Who is eligible to apply?
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. The age limit is relaxable for candidates belonging to the SC/ST category
Qualification: candidates need to be Graduates from a recognized board or university.
How to prepare for exam and interview
Candidates need to pass the screening test first. They should submit the application form online. Next they need to undergo tests in professional and psychological aptitude assessment which includes behavioral and logical skills. After that they will go through a Medical evaluation. The final stage is an interview where the candidate will be judged before he/she is selected. The candidates should remember that only 2 or 3 people out of scores of candidates will be chosen at the end. So, they need to be prepared for the toughest competition.
