my name is sankar my aim is to become an astronaut but what course should i study to become an astronaut i have finished xii th std. pls reply me

dear friend

If you want to become a astronaut then you have to do Most Helpful High School Courses like- Chemistry, Biology, Computer science, AP® Calculus BC, AP Computer Science AB and AP Physics C and Take as many AP and Honors courses as possible.
But, The ideal astronaut candidate would probably have a BS from the Air Force academy and a PhD from MIT or Cal Tech........


ok
all the best.

to become an astronaut Choose a scientific field for your bachelor's degree that you can use if you become an astronaut. Possibilities include medicine, biology, chemistry, physics, aerospace engineering and mathematics

if u wanna to become an astrounaut then u have to clear the exams of iit-jee or aieee & u have 2 do an aernoutical engg course on to clear the exams of iit &u will got the college of it & ur dream engg course will be aernoutical engg so u haveto clear the iit with gud marks n it ok

Best of luck ..........and my wishes are with you........

you have to give the entrance exam of the isro that is in space field after your 12 th class exams ..................best of luck...........

is it necessary to do aeronautical or aerospace engg.to become an astronaut.how about mechanical or electrical engg plz reply

After completing B.S.C com in 3years,can i have a chance to become an astronaut?

Hello friend,

It is appreciable that you want to be an astronaut. Of course you can be , if you pass the stages involved in the whole process to become an astronaut.

After passing 12th with physics as compulsory subject, you have to do B.Sc in space science or B.Tech in aeronautical engineering.

After that you can do higher studies like Phd or M.phil in your specialised subject.

By going through these stages,you can find your desired goal.

Wish you best of luck!

how to apply for entrance exam of isro after 12th

is it possible to become eligible for becoming an astronaut with a Bsc. in computer science???

hello sir,
i m prachi patil
my aim is to be an astronaut , i m Bsc (maths) graduate. now i m studying aeronautical eng.are these qualifications essential to become an astronaut.

NASA How to Get There?

You have to acquire anyone of the following degree from a good institute like IIT or IISC or IIST (most suitable). Thats because it has been seen that students fron these Institute get plenty of oppurtunities to get there, and also there way becomes easy so far.


P.hd (Astro physics).
P.hd (Geophysics).
P.hd (Metaphysics) I mean to say any branch of physics which leads to space science,these are few examples.

You can persue these degrees from IIT's or IISc, after acquiring these degrees from there you can appear for entrance conducted by NASA at international level for recruiting Astronauts,Scientists etc. but only best one can able to appear and crack it. You can also work with our country's ISRO various entrance are cionducted by ISRO for recruiting Scientists and engineers for carrying Space reasearch or various jobs related to R & D.

M.tech/P.hd (Aerospace engineering)
M.tech.P.hd (Aeronautical engineering)

Better to pursue these degrees from IIST (http://www.iist.ac.in).IIST conducts Admission to its specialized courses which leads in space tecnhnology. For entering into IIST you have to crack ISAT or IITJEE after that you will be provided Admission into B.tech if you have good performance in B.tech then you would also offered M.tech or P.hd. all study there is free of cost, after acquiring degree from there you will be absorb as an Scientist of ISRO.

Besides these you will also get opportunity to join NASA or work with NASA,the best place for astronauts in the World. They pay $1,00,000 to there scientists or astronauts.
Six Indian Students were involved in LHC (Large Hadron Collidor) experiment at CERN, they from NIT, Durgapur and were M.tech student.

I would also suggest all the askers to Read a Article "Astronaut Selection Process" HERE

I am sure it will be much helpful for all of you.

If problem persists please feel free to ask.

Best of Luck

I think so that you should firstly gives an engineering entrance examination may be aieee or iit. for this you should have good practice in physics,chemistry and maths. After having good rank in these exams take admission in good engineering college and choose your stream.

yes dear you can easily become astronaot in nasa be taking admission in aeronutical engg.after 12th and also have a command on your subject.in 12th
best of luck

Hello sanker,

For becoming an astronaut,you must concentrate on following subjects-physics,chemistry, mathematics,computer,statistics,discrete mathematics etc.in your 12th standard. After 12th you may take physics honors and master degree in physics will help you to become an astronaut......you may also go for phd in physics after your mater degree....so you please concentrate on your bachelor degree now....and you must score good in your bachelor degree...

All the best....

Hi!

If you want to join NASA as an astronaut pilot you must hold a bachelor's degree from an accredited institution in engineering, biological science, physical science, or mathematics. An advanced degree is desirable.

So, the best course for you after 12th would be bachelor's degree in any one of the following discipline depending upon your interest.Quality of academic preparation is also important. Thus, whatever discipline you choose just make sure that you enroll yourself in the best institution for the respective discipline.

for becoming an astronaut, first of all, you have to clear iit jee exam with very good marks so that you will get aeronautical engineering. After completing your engineering, you can apply for isro. If you do well there then you will surely become an astronaut.
All the best

dear friend

to join NASA as an astronaut pilot you must hold a bachelor's degree from an

accredited institution in engineering, biological science, physical science, or

mathematics. An advanced degree is desirable.

DEAR FRIEND
just go for the aerospace or aeronautical engineering you will surely become an astronaut.

can engineering degree in computer science make me eligible????

Hi im Ajay studying in 10th standard in K. V. New Cantt Ald. and willin to become an astronaut. afer many searches i found dat i will hv 2 score gud marks in physics chemistry and maths in 10th and 12th clas. my maths is gud bt chem is a bit gud and physics is also gud bt nw the 10th exam is nt going bad bt i will try to make it bettr. help me and tell me hw to join isro and nasa and wat are the most imp requirements for dis . is it necessary to pass in physicals. please tll me. phone no. 9795256003

after that i will try to study hard

After compliting your 12th class,
To become an astronaut you must have a degree with any subject Biological science,/Physical science,/Mathematics,/Space Science etc.
Or you have B-tech in aerospace engineering/aernoutical engineering/mechanical/electrical engineering.
From a recogniged University/Board with a good marks.

After compliting your degree you can start your career in any of space research organisation like ISRO,NASA.
