Ans: You will have to apply through the Recruitment of Scientist/Engineer ‘SC’ section of the ICRB portal. Just check if there is an opening for a Mechanical Engineer's post or not.

Ans: Encourage your son to pursue his passion and stay focused on his goals. Working at ISRO can be a rewarding experience!
Jadavpur University’s Mechanical Engineering department has a rich history, functioning since 1906. It is currently the largest department in the Faculty of Engineering.
The department actively engages in various research projects with organizations like DRDO, BRNS, DST, ARDB, and NSTL.

To work as a scientist or engineer at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), your son can follow these steps:
Educational Foundation:
Start with a strong educational background. Complete a bachelor’s degree (B.E. or B.Tech.) in a relevant field (such as Mechanical Engineering). Pursue a master’s degree (M.E. or M.Tech.) if desired. While optional, it can enhance qualifications.

Gain practical experience through internships, projects, or industry collaborations.
Stay Updated and Network, Keep abreast of developments in space research and technology. Network with professionals in the field.

Prepare for entrance exams:
ISRO Centralized Recruitment Board (ICRB) Exam: The primary gateway to becoming an ISRO scientist or engineer. It includes multiple-choice questions on technical subjects related to space.
Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE): While not specific to ISRO, a good GATE score can be beneficial.

Ans: Hi.
To become an astronaut for ISRO or NASA while currently pursuing a B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering, you will need to follow a strategic path.

Apply to ISRO or NASA Programs:
ISRO Selection Process: ISRO currently selects astronauts mainly from the Indian Air Force, but they may open up to civilians with specific qualifications in the future. Keep an eye on ISRO announcements for astronaut recruitment.
NASA Astronaut Selection Process: To apply to NASA, you need U.S. citizenship. If you are interested in NASA, consider opportunities that could lead to citizenship or partnerships with NASA through international programs.

Keep track of ISRO and NASA's astronaut recruitment criteria, as they may change over time.
Space exploration requires multidisciplinary knowledge, so be open to gaining skills beyond your current field.
