🌠 Dreaming of Space? Here’s How to Become an Astronaut with ISRO

With India’s Gaganyaan mission, ISRO is preparing to send Indian astronauts (Vyomanauts) into space. Unlike the past (e.g., Rakesh Sharma in 1984), the future astronauts may come from engineering, science, or research backgrounds—not just the Air Force. If you’re a Class 12 student aiming for space, this guide is your step-by-step map.


🧑‍🚀 Step 1: Choose the Right Stream After Class 12

  • Choose Science Stream (PCM) – Physics, Chemistry, Maths are essential.
  • Score high in Class 12 Boards (minimum 75% often needed for top exams).
  • Prepare for Competitive Exams
    • JEE Main + Advanced (for IITs and IIST)
    • IIST Admission – IIST (Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology) takes students based on JEE-Advanced rank.

📝 Example: A student from Kerala with JEE rank under 10,000 entered IIST Aerospace Engineering.


🎓 Step 2: Best Degrees to Become an Astronaut

Top Undergraduate Degrees:

  • B.Tech in Aerospace, Mechanical, Electronics, Computer Science
  • Dual degree: Engineering Physics + M.Sc/M.Tech
  • B.Sc in Physics/Astronomy followed by M.Sc/M.Tech

Postgraduate Degrees (Optional but Strongly Recommended):

  • M.Tech or Ph.D. in Aerospace, Astrophysics, Satellite Tech, Propulsion
  • Research-oriented degrees make you stand out for astronaut roles

📌 Note: ISRO values candidates with strong technical degrees and research experience.

🏫 Step 3: Top Institutes to Target

  1. IIST (Thiruvananthapuram) – ISRO’s own institute
    1. Courses: Aerospace, Avionics, Dual Degree
    1. Admission: JEE-Advanced
    1. High performers placed directly in ISRO
  2. IITs (Bombay, Madras, Kanpur, Kharagpur) – Strong aerospace programs
  3. IISc Bengaluru, IISERs – Pure science + space research paths
  4. BITS Pilani, VIT, Manipal – Top private institutes with space-related programs
  5. NDA/Air Force Academy – For flying/defence route to space

🚀 Step 4: Join ISRO as a Scientist/Engineer

🛠️ ISRO Recruitment Process:

  • Take GATE exam (in Aerospace, Mech, ECE, CS, Physics, etc.)
  • Apply for Scientist/Engineer ‘SC’ posts on ISRO’s website
  • IIST grads with top CGPA (7.5+) get direct ISRO placement

Once in ISRO, you may work on:
✅ Launch vehicles (rockets), satellites
✅ Life-support systems for astronauts
✅ Space research and mission planning

🔭 This real-world work builds technical expertise needed for astronaut roles.


🧬 Step 5: Astronaut Selection Criteria (ISRO)

ISRO is building its own Human Space Flight Centre (HSFC). Gaganyaan astronauts are selected through a rigorous process:

📌 Key Requirements:

  • STEM Degree (B.Tech/B.Sc + M.Sc/M.Tech preferred)
  • Top physical and medical fitness
  • Excellent mental strength and teamwork
  • No chronic illnesses, good eyesight, fit BMI

🧠 Psychological tests, neuro-assessments, and interviews are included.
✈️ Currently, ISRO has chosen 4 IAF test pilots for Gaganyaan, but future astronauts will be engineers and scientists too.


🏋️ Step 6: Astronaut Training Process

Once selected, training includes:

Classroom Study – Spacecraft systems, mission planning
Simulators & Flight Suits – Operating spacecraft, docking
Fitness & Centrifuge Training – G-force tolerance, zero gravity
Medical & Survival Training – Emergency survival on land and sea
Yoga & Meditation – Focus, discipline, stress management

🌍 Initial batches trained in Russia, but now India has its own training base in Karnataka.


📚 Step 7: Subjects & Skills to Focus On (From Class 12)

🎯 Academic Skills:

  • Physics (Mechanics, Electromagnetism)
  • Mathematics (Calculus, Algebra, Trigonometry)
  • Computer Science & Electronics
  • Aerodynamics, Satellite Basics

💪 Fitness & Soft Skills:

  • Daily sports or gym (run, swim, cycle)
  • Teamwork, leadership, problem-solving
  • Projects on astronomy, robotics, model rocketry

🧑‍🎓 Step 8: Timeline to Space (Your Career Plan)

AgeMilestone
17–18Pass Class 12 (PCM) with high marks
18–22B.Tech/B.Sc from IIST, IIT, or top college
22–25GATE + Join ISRO as Engineer/Scientist
25–30Gain 3–5 yrs experience, M.Tech/Ph.D (optional)
30+Apply for Astronaut Program

💬 Becoming an astronaut takes 8–12 years of dedication.


📢 Final Message –

“Becoming an astronaut is not a one-time goal—it’s a journey of science, service, and strength. Prepare early, work hard, stay fit, and stay curious. One day, India’s tricolor may soar in space with you aboard!”
