Astronomy as a career?

I’m just wondering, how does one study for astronomy as a career? Do you study Physics and then branch off into something like Astrophysics, or what? This is partly out of personal interest, and of course because it should be explained in the article. — NRen2k5 19:35, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Depends on th euniversity and country. But I would guess that one of the most common paths are some version of physics/astronomy/astrophysics studies as an undergrad, then PhD-studies in astronomy, then postdoc (if you are lucky) for a couple of years in order to get a tenure at a university. Not an easy path, and a lot of people who tries it does not succeed all the way (as is the cas for all academic careers.) Mossig (talk) 21:16, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Emily Lakdawalla

This person is a science writer and science populariser. Surely there are better examples of an astronomer? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.90.242.55 (talk) 14:44, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
