how can i join the astronomical courses?i am a student of Bsc. with chemistry hons.

You cannot join the astronomical courses after B.sc with chemistry (hons) as the eligibility criteria for the same is as under-
1. candidate should pass their plus two examination under the science stream, specially in physics and math's.

2. Since universities offering undergraduate programme in Astronomy are rarely found, one can join for a major/ honours in Physics with Mathematics as a subsidiary subject.

3. Thereafter, take a master's degree in Physics or Astronomy. After the successful completion of MSc, one can do specialization in astronomy leading to Ph. D. which enables one to become an astronomer/ astronaut/ astrophysicist or a scientist/ research officer etc. in the field of space research.

So as a career it is difficult for you to get an astronomical degree but as a passion you can join any undergraduate programme for astronomical course.

You can also join the astrochemistry which is a branch of astronomy and chemistry dealing with the chemical composition and evolution of the universe and its parts.
