Dear Sir / Mam.... I am interested in Astrophysics. I graduated with Physics (H). Please tell me right path to become an Astrophysicist ?
Astrophysicists explore physical properties of celestial objects, including stars, planets and galaxies; thus, they need a substantial amount of scientific knowledge. They are scientists that study the physical components of celestial objects. They study the physics of the universe as well as the interaction between the various objects which occupy it.
Education Needed to Become an Astrophysicist
A Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree in astronomy, astrophysics or physics. after that you need to earn A Master of Science (M.Sc.) degree in astrophysics.
After that A doctoral (Ph.D.) degree in astrophysics which is most likley needed if you want to work for a college or university as a teacher or a researcher.
You will also likely need a Ph.D. to work in most federal government research positions. Many astrophysicists who have doctoral degrees work as post-doctoral fellows for 3-6 years before finding permanent employment.
Good Luck!
