I got admission into metallurgical and materials engineering at NIT Warangal. What would be the future if I join there?
I have a friend who completed his BTech in Metallurgical and Material Engineering from NIT Warangal last year. According to him, the institute and the branch offer a plethora of academic and job opportunities during and after the course.
The department provides ample opportunities to those who are genuinely interested in the branch or the subject. Passionate students receive great help from the faculty but you need to be self-motivated to avail the resources.
Here are a few future prospects for a Metallurgy and Material Engineering student of NIT Warangal
- You can pursue a career in research if you are a research enthusiast and bagging fat packages is not your goal.
- The placement opportunities are a bit limited given its average scenario. The highest CTC stood at INR 25 LPA while the average package recorded this year stood at INR 13 LPA
Today, the alumni of this department are pursuing successful careers so I feel in the long run you will be able to benefit from this too. So go for this branch!

From where B.Tech is better? Thapar, Patiala or NIT Kurukshetra?
There are several factors that you need to consider while making a choice.
NIT Kurukshetra is definitely much more economical than Thapar. There was a time when Thapar was superior to NIT Kurukshetra. But with time, things have changed a lot for both the colleges.
At NIT Kurukshetra, the teaching quality varies with departments. Most professors are very learned and supportive. The professors of ECE department are quite learned. However, they are also very strict with their students. The placements are good at both. You can check the placement scenario at Thapar and NIT Kurukshetra .
NIT Kurukshetra and Thapar are both good colleges and have their own strengths and weaknesses.

Which is better for a person getting JEE rank greater than 3500: Get brand name of IIT without top-notch branch or join NITs/DCE/NSIT with CS/EE?
If your rank is more than 1000, you’ll probably not get CS/ EE in any good IIT. But if you still wish for an IIT tag, I would recommend you go for a more relaxed branch. This means, picking the branch with the lowest closing rank. I am saying this because apart from the CS/EE/Mathematics group, all the branches come under the category of “others”. Unfortunately, all these “other” branches are equally placed.
- The coursework, curriculum, and labs are very bland, boring, and outdated. With these branches, a good CGPA and extracurriculars will be the saving grace for your resume.
- A lower branch will allow you to secure good grades more easily and you will get time to pursue extracurriculars.
- By doing courses on Coursera and Udacity and making open-source contributions, you can become skilled and learn in coding/programming. Through various online platforms, you can get in touch with software companies in the valley.
If you are passionate about a field, be it Mechanical or Chemical, definitely go for it. With a passion for your field, you will secure a good core job or can even plan your Phd. in that domain. I would also recommend you check the integrated MSc. courses in Mathematics/Statistics/Physics. They might be a better and more beneficial choice.
As far as NSIT/DCE/NITs are concerned, I would recommend you talk to some seniors from the CSE/EE branch to get a better idea. Otherwise, go for a lower branch in the IITs if you do not get a “top notch” branch at them.
