    Dear Sir/Madam,
    I have recently passed 12th standard. I can do well in construction (of astronomy related models, for eg.telescope etc.);but not interested in design,construction. I am very much interested in ‘Reasearch (eg. observations) in Astrophysics’. For that can I do M.Sc. or direct Ph.D. in Astrophysics after completing B.E.? What are different options to go in ‘Astrophysics Research’ after B.E.?
    Thank You.
