which college should I choose iit ism in fuel mineral and metallurgical engineering or iit bhu mining engineering ?

See, having a legacy of over 100 years and being one of the old Indian Institute of Technologies, both IIT (ISM) Dhanbad and IIT BHU enjoys the full glory of being an IIT. Most of the good companies that recruit in India, they recruit from here. So, rest assured about the placements as you'll get ample opportunities in both the colleges, Now the ball is in your court as you can chose the field which excites you the most.

I would personally recommend you to go to IIT BHU as Banaras is a good city as compared to Dhanbad, so you'll be able to enjoy and explore more here.

Hope I have answered your question. All the best!
