Career

Hello Akshat,
Your question is exactly on career and job segment, According to my experience lots of career scope in animation and VFX field. Animation and VFX is biggest part of Media and Entertainment industry.
Accordingly FICCI report Media and Entertainment Industry is highly growth field right now.
The Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) is an association of business organisations in India.
The media and entertainment industry in India consists of many different segments under its folds such as television, print, and films, radio, music, OOH, animation, gaming and visual effects (VFX) and Internet advertising. You can work all these segments .
In these segments you need just understanding of software skill, tools of the industry no further required.
As per the combined survey report by KMPG and FICCI, the entertainment industry in India is expected to expand by 12.5% every year and is likely to reach US$20.09 billion by the year 2013.
The industry is estimated to achieve growth of 13 per cent in 2011 to touch US$16.2 billion. As the industry braces for exciting times ahead, the sector is projected to grow at a CAGR of 19 percent 2020 which is highest growth as compare to other fields, That mean more income and jobs.
In MNCs like Pixar, Technicolour (Bangalore), Rhythm and Hues (Hyderabad) , Red chilies, Prime Focus, DQ entertainment etc salaries are more than software engineers.
If you are interested in this field so you can just join a professional career based course in best institute no degree required in this field because I have already mentioned that Animation and VFX is depends on creativity and software skills.
There are many colleges and institutions for Animation in India. If you wanna really choose right place for this filed focus on just few things. These things are Mentors(Faculties), Course content, Career Opportunities(Placement), Environment and Equipment's(Labs). Only these things can make a brand and in India there are just few brand institutes who provide a quality education in Animation field.

An astronaut is a person trained by a human space flight program to command, pilot, or serve as a crew member of a spacecraft. Although generally reserved for professional space travellers, the terms are sometimes applied to anyone who travels into space, including scientists also. Following are the general eligibility criteria to become astronaut:
(a) Bachelor's degree from a recognised university in engineering, Science, or mathematics etc. An advanced degree is desirable.
(b) At least 1,000 hours pilot-in-command time in jet aircraft. Flight test experience is highly desirable.
(c) Medically fit
I am not discouraging you, but opportunities to become Astronauts are very limited. India has only two astronauts and they were from Indian Air Force Fighter Pilot branch. Other Indians who became Astronauts like Kalpana Chawala joined NASA and became Astonauts after obtaining USA citizenship.

The Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) is a leading government-aided institute and deemed university for the study and research of space Science. It is third in ranking after IIT and PEC Chandigarh for doing B.Tech Aerospace engineering. It is a good option to doing Aerospace engineering and joining ISRO.
