Can a Mechanical engineering Student do "Masters in AstroPhysics" or related science course?

can i avail msc in astrophysics from osmania after btech in mechanical

Dear Friend,
Usually Astrophysics Stream are not included in Engineering Courses,Its a Part of Science and comes under B.Sc and M.Sc Courses.
In order to become eligible for M.Sc Courses in Astrophysics you must have completed your B.Sc Course from any of the Relevant Stream.
Beside this no other Stream students are Eligible for this Courses.

But,There is one more choice you may go with,There are many University especially IISc(Indian Institute of Science) which offers Integrated M.Tech+Ph.D in Astrophysics.
You may Apply for it or Else you have to chose other Stream of Engineering Courses.

I am extremely interested in astrophysics. i have done diploma in electronics engg. right now, m very confused whether to choose electronics or mechanical or any other trade at graduation level so that i would be most eligible for an astrophysics course..preferably at Indian Institute of Astrophysics. Plz help.

I am also a mechanical engineer paseed out in 2013, want a career in astronomy, some guidence please!
For isto sc posts they require 65 % i have 63.5 , is there a way for me ?

I have done b.tech in mechanical engineering. I have keen interest in astronomy. What is the way to be an astrophysicist ? Indian institute of Astrophysics or Indiana institute of science.
Please post a comment.

I have cleared my BE in automobile engineering. Is their any chance that I can go beyond in astrophysics.

Want to do a comprehensive research in space especially in astrophysics ! Choosing mechanical engineering whose techniques are valid will be the right choice or bs physics in the era where one need to compete the financial pbms as well .thanks . .
