Dear student,

The metallurgical engineering branch of one of the oldest and reputed branches all over the world. And metallurgical engineering is a core branch. On the other hand material science is not a core branch. And in India the demand of core branches are more than sub part branch in engineering field.

In metallurgical branch you have to work with a variety of metals to design new products, refine the collection process, and create different blends of metal to suit specific needs. A metallurgical engineer's job is to design methods for separating metal from the rest of the components, with consideration for the environment.

In material science engineering you have to work with metals, ceramics, and plastics to create new materials. You have to develop, process, and test materials used to create range of p roducts from aircraft wings, biomedical devices, computer chips, etc.

Both the branches are very good in their own perspective.

The placements are all depend upon quality of the students. But in general the metallurgical branch has a good placement record over material science. In iits you will get an average package of 16lakhs in metallurgy branch. But sometimes it can go beyond 30 lakhs per annum.
