What if your students knew they could become space scientists, data analysts, or even astronauts — starting with just a telescope session? For many Indian students, space still feels out of reach. But the truth is: space careers are growing fast — and they're hiring locally. 🚀
From the success of Chandrayaan-3 to the ongoing Aditya-L1 mission, India’s space program is inspiring a new generation of thinkers, builders, and explorers. The question is: are we preparing our students to join them?
🪐 Our career-awareness sessions help students visualize what’s possible and how to begin. And it all starts with one question:👉 “What do I need to study to work at ISRO or with space technology?”
💼 Here are 8 exciting careers in astronomy and space jobs India is ready for:
