Hello Dear,

As the percentile mentioned by you your General AIR rank must be between 573996 - 400110. But your category rank will be much lower. There is a good chance that you can get NIT Warangal on your rank because the cutoff rank for NIT Warangal for metallurgical engineering or ECE or EEE branch is much lower in your category. For more information you can check the list below:

https://engineering.careers360.com/articles/jee-main-cutoff-for-nit-warangal

but as you know cut off depends upon the number of seats available, the difficulty level of paper and number of candidates writing the examination. And, hence varies every year depending on these factors. You have mentioned your home state so the chances are very good to get your desired college. You can check the rank vs percentile vs marks below:

Good Luck

There are a lot of options after graduating in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering.

If you are from a IIT, NIT or GFTI or a Top State Technical Institute like BIT Sindri, Anna University, Jadavpur University or GEC Salem, you must be having standard placements in your Institute in Core Industries.

Of course many students appear for GATE Examination for Admission in higher Technical Institutes in India like Top IITs and IISC Bangalore for their Masters and Doctoral degree. Most of the IITs as well as IISc Bangalore have standard placements for Materials Postgraduate students, with top companies like Applied Materials, Micron, Boeing, Airbus, Rolls Royce, Tata Steel, JSW, Jindal Stainless, AM/NS India opening positions.

You can perhaps give the GRE Examination for admission in a Masters/MS in Material Science and Engineering in some of the Top Universities of the World. Materials Engineering has a great scope and career prospects in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Japan and Singapore. Nowadays, most of the students going for education abroad especially in the United States directly go for a Doctoral Degree as the Materials Industry demands expertise in technology. Intel, Apple and a dozen more semiconductor and technology companies like HP and Micron, besides companies like Caterpillar, Tesla, United Steel Corporation, Ford, Rio Tinto, BMW and Nucor Steel are regular recruiters of Material Engineers in the United States. Materials Engineers are excellent Quality Engineera, and hence their rising demand in the Automotive and Mechanical Industry. Many even join National Research Labs as scientists or Top Institutions as Academics and Researchers after a Doctoral degree. Many even return to India and continue their research career in Institutions like the IITs or Laboratories like National Metallurgical Laboratory Jamshedpur and DMRL Hyderabad.

Other options include getting a placement after Metallurgical Engineering, perhaps most of the IITs and NITs have standard placements for Metallurgical Branch in both Core and Non Core Sectors with Finance, Software, Consulting and Analytics sectors having some of the highest preferred Non Core placement opportunities besides regular Core Opportunities.

Public Sector Units provide a promising career for Metallurgical Engineers. Under PSUs you have SAIL, Nalco, IOCL, BIS, RINL, Midhani as well as public research organizations like BARC, DRDO, ISRO and National Metallurgical Laboratory which open each year for Metallurgical Graduates either through GATE or through their own entrance Examination followed by Interview.

Metallurgical Engineers are excellent Operation Managers, hence you can even consider going for a MBA post your Bachelors Degree in Engineering and later choose the Manufacturing and Operations Industry with excellent career prospects.

Thank you!

Hi Rohith!

The main objective of Metallurgy and Material Engineering is to study any kind of material, their composition, advantages, disadvantages, their applications, etc,. It comprises the physical metallurgy, mechanical behaviour like it's fracture point and more.

Material Engineer will study more about the specific material and change its composition of needed to make it more durable or suitable for the specific application.

This course can be done as a Diploma Course, Undergraduate Course or Post Graduate Course.

Metallurgical Engineers have scope in industries which manufacture machineries, automobiles, etc,. They also use latest scientific technology like X-Rays, Lasers and other Non-Destructive methods to know more about the materials.

All the very best!

Here for your preference iam provinding  a link for you kindly use it know about college https://engineering.careers360.com/jee-main-college-predictor?icn=QnA&ici=qna_answer

Hi,

Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) combines engineering, physics and chemistry principles to solve the real-world problems associated with nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology, energy, manufacturing and other major engineering disciplines.

Metallurgical engineers usually focus on the production of metals, metallic parts and the properties of those materials. They help make products stronger, more durable, lighter weight and more energy efficient, especially when utilizing recycled materials rather than ores.

While looking at the scopes for these branches, a metallurgical engineer can work in electrical and mechanical machinery factories. Some government agencies also are major recruiters.

For material science engineers, the major jobs are

• Materials Scientist
• Metallurgist Process Engineer
• Development Engineer
• Manufacturing Engineer
• Process Engineer
• Project Engineer
• Materials Engineer

First of all understand the difference between these two branches and identify the job which suits your interest the most. If you are more into physical work and experimental field, choose metallurgy. If you are more of a developer and theorist, choose material science. None of these is a better course than the other. The choice depends completely upon your skill and interest.
