Top recruiters
Not Your Typical Coding Branch
Materials & Metallurgical is a core manufacturing stream. Placements are solid at 88%, but the recruiter list is dominated by steel, defense, and energy giants—not the usual FAANG lineup. Perfect if you're obsessed with how things are built; less ideal if you want a generic tech backup.
The verdict
Good fit
IIT Hyderabad gives you a top-10 engineering tag with a micro 30-seat batch. If you're drawn to core sectors like steel, defense, and advanced materials, this is a power move. The 88% placement rate and ₹16.8L average CTC are healthy, but the branch is niche—don't expect mass tech recruiting.
