However, one more things, I would suggest you that try to go for abroad for making career in Astronomy, coz India has Very less score in this. There are very few college here, which provides astronomy at Bachelor's level. In India, you can do B.Tech in Aerospace Engineering (recommended: from IIST or IIT-B). At last, first you need to come up with you

Hi PRADYUMN,
Yes, you can do M.Sc. In astrophysics after completing your graduation in BDS. But you should not have any backlogs of previous degree at the time of admission.
Best of luck.

Dear Mathew,
Getting internship in astronomy or in core physics sector is very difficult to get in India. Only a few institution like IIS Bangalore, IIST Kerala, IIT Bombay and Madras provide the same. Because there are very few opportunities in astronomy sector. I am not sure about ISRO, DRDO and National Physical Laboratory. So, try to upgrade your profile for this and get the admission in a top notch college of India.

The diploma wouldn't fetch you much, especially a distance one. If you really want to make career in Astronomy and AstroPhysics, you should rather opt for M.Sc and PhD.

I don't think so that this course is available in Madurai Kamaraj University or any other distance learning university. This courses must be available in the regular university.

Hostel life at IITI is one of the best in all the IITs. Newly constructed hostel building in the permanent campus has a great infrastructure.
Facilities are also great there.
