- Getting admission to the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST), Thiruvananthapuram for direct recruitment to ISRO.
The first way of joining ISRO
The ISRO ICRB examination is a two stage examination. It comprises of a national-level written exam (offline mode) and a personal interview. The minimum qualification required is BE/BTech with at least 65% marks or 6.84 CGPA. The maximum age limit is 30 years.
