Hello aspirant,

I hope that you are doing absolutely great.

With reference to your above mentioned query, I would like to tell you that Yes you can surely become a Scientist in aerospace medicine but degree wise you need to apply to each degree in a single time . For example once you complete your MBBS or any course related to doctor you can continue after that the degree of aerospace scientist

You need to have at least 5 year experience in medicine fields or you can go for MD or MS after your MBBS in advanced medicines . Then your chances of selection will be high in becoming a aerospace medicine Scientist.

The Institute of Aerospace Medicine (IAM) is the sole institute in India for students who aspire to make a career in aerospace medicine. It is one of its kind in entire South Asia for conducting courses in Aerospace Medicine/ Students must complete their MBBS and then specialize in a Doctor of Medicine level (MD) .
