Eligibility for M.Sc. in Astrophysics
The minimum eligibility required to be met for admission to the course is graduation completed with science from a recognized university with a minimum aggregate score of 50%.
A few universities and colleges in India conduct entrance examinations for admission to the course.
M.Sc. in Astrophysics: Admission Process
Admission to the course is conducted in 2 stages:
Institutional Test.
Personal Interview- involving assessment of fitness, work experience, publications and statement of purpose.
Most colleges admit students to the course on the basis of their performance in the relevant entrance test. Some institutions/ universities conduct their own entrance tests for offering admission. The admission process may vary from college to college.
M.Sc. in Astrophysics: Academic Options
Upon successful completion of the course, successful postgraduates interested in higher studies in the discipline may go for pursuing M.Phil./ PH.D. in the subject.

A doctoral degree is the usual educational requirement to become an astronomer, since most of the work tends to be related to research and development.
Those who opt for this field, should pass their plus two examination under the science stream, specially in physics and math's. For pursuing a career in theoretical or observational astronomy one may go through the science stream after plus two. Since universities offering undergraduate program in Astronomy are rarely found, one can join for a major/ honors in Physics with Mathematics as a subsidiary subject. Thereafter, take a master's degree in Physics or Astronomy. After the successful completion of M.Sc, one can do specialization in astronomy leading to Ph.D which enables one to become an astronomer/ astronaut/ astrophysicist or a scientist/ research officer etc. in the field of space research.
For doing Ph.D, which is mandatory to do research, one should appear for the Joint Entrance Screening Test (JEST) examination.
