Buckle up, because what I'm about to say is what you might not want to hear.
At this point of time, your chances in getting a job at NASA is close to nil. Why? Simply because you are not a US citizen.

See? Most of their programs are federal funded (government aid), so they will only very rarely take non-citizens.
In the event that you do become a US citizen, what you study is entirely up to you. These are the types of jobs at NASA, as well as their descriptions, so go ahead and read it:

And going to space is easier said then done. Most NASA astronauts are US based, and have a lot of experience. It's like this: you don't choose NASA, NASA chooses you.

So no chances of me to get admitted to the NASA? :(

I didn't say you have no chances, I said next to nil, which means close to none. If you're extremely smart, display excellent academic achievement, have the right amount of exposure and experience, then you might (and I emphasize "might") get into NASA.
I'm not going to give you any false hope, but if you're not a US citizen, it's next to impossible. You'll have to become one, then study and work until they accept you.
