Core Sector, Niche Lane

Metallurgy is a specialized manufacturing track—not a broad tech/software route. Top recruiters are steel and materials giants, and the batch size is just 40. Ideal if you love physical materials and industrial processes; less ideal if you want blanket tech flexibility.

The verdict

Worth considering

IIT Indore brings strong brand equity, NAAC A++ infrastructure, and credible core placements with Tata Steel, JSW, and Hindalco. That said, the program is niche, confidence on outcomes is moderate, and it lacks the broad tech versatility of CS/Electronics. Pick it if materials science excites you; skip if you prioritize maximum placement flexibility.
