Astronomy

Hello Amal Das, You have given list of all very interesting, the latest specialisations and asking for scope. Okay. Let me attempt. Astrophysics is comparatively old subject and it's scope is limited to research and hence if you are really fascinated & interested in research, you should not venture. Data Science has tremendous scope in the times to come. AI of course goes hand in hand with data Science and is being increasingly used. Biotechnology too had very good potential in India keeping in mind the requirement of increasing productivity of our farmers. Nanotechnology is another subject which promises great things but is yet to prove it's mettle. But don't go by what I am saying. Follow your heart, go for the subject that fascinates you the most. Best wishes to you.

Hi Dollar,
First thing, you need to have maths as a compulsory subject in class 12th. Secondly, there is no such post of research astronaut (and there is no direct posting for astronaut). To be the research scientist, the ideal path is B.Sc. Then, M.Sc and Ph.D and a lot of industrial experience in research sector (with lots of publication, patents etc.). For Bachelor's level, I don't think that there is any (good) college in India who offers cosmology or astronomy or astrophysics at Bachelor's level. You may check of the website of IIS Bangalore (Indian Institute of Science). They offers some certifications course in Astrophysics. Hope this helps. Good Luck.
