There are jobs. You see PSUs like the Oil and gas companies, Mineral Development Corporation, NALCO etc - these companies do take mining engineers. So are there are enough job oppotunities? - well I cant say as this is dependent upon a lot of facts. However, you could apply for GATE after you complete your B.Tech and then apply for PSUs that take through. alternately, you could ask the placement incharge at the college you are studying if you are doing your engineering to give you details.
