Hello,
The last time an Indian became an astronaut, he was test pilot from IAF. This time too, for Gaganyan, it is expected that test pilots if IAF would be selected by ISRO to become astronauts to be launched from Indian soil. But yes, in US, Aeronautical Engineers have become astronauts though it's not mandatory. Best wishes to you.

Hi,
In engineering, your path could be, aerospace/avionics Engineer, flight engineer, project engineer etc. However, by Science stream (B.Sc-M.Sc) you can be research scientist, academicians, physicist etc. So, it's all depends on your aspirations. The suggested college for Astronomy is Indian Institute of Space Science & Technology, India Institute of Science, Bangalore, IIT-B, M.

Space shuttle pilots are selected based on their flying performance. If you are talking about piloting a spacecraft, you need to become an engineer and excellent military grade pilot. Becoming an aerospace engineer probably will increase the probability.

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
