I'm studying aerospace engineering from IIEST Shibpur. What should I do to join ISRO? It is the only dream I have.

It is seen that usually, the exam conducted by ISRO, that is ICRB, takes students from the different branches of engineering that include electrical, electronics, and mechanical sections. So the exam syllabus is mostly based on these branches only.

• The students pursuing aerospace engineering, mechatronics, aeronautical engineering, metallurgy, and related fields can apply for the scientist under the mechanical branch as on lower level mechanical engineers are sufficient to work in the related fields as well.
• Since you can apply but most of the paper will be based on a mechanical portion only that would be a kind of drawback for you.
• Also, there are other vacancies in ISRO for which you can apply but those vacancies usually demand higher degrees, including M.Tech and Ph.D. in the aerospace field.

Lastly, we can conclude that you have two options if you dream to work in ISRO. Firstly you can apply for a mechanical branch while filling an application for the exam or you can pursue higher studies and then apply for the vacancies in ISRO. This approach can help you immensely in turning your dream into reality.
