How is MTech Mechanical Engineering (specialisation in Maintenance Engineering and Tribology) at IIT Dhanbad in terms of placements?
Mtech. Mechanical has a total intake of 160 in which each specialization has 40 seats. Sadly the placement scenario here is not so good but now the situation is changed a bit after conversion of ISM to IIT.Last year upto 20 students were placed but only a few were placed in core companies.But i think in future the placement will going to be improved due to the IIT tag.
This tag also earns a respect in society.
So I can suggest you that if you are interested in that particular branch and not getting other better options then please go for it.
Hard work and a good skillset will definitely place you in some good firm.
IIT Dhanbad is one of the best engineering institution in the country, it has a good campus, Dhanbad being the coal capital of India has a lot of PSUs.
Now coming to the point, the placement of IIT Dhanbad is not as good as those for B.Tech but at an overall level, placement is nice, you can expect a salary ranging from 4lakhs to 12 lakhs.
Hope I am clear.
