Hi Keshwanand, yes it is possible for a mechanical engineering student to pursue m.tech in disaster mitigation and management. Courses from (Civil, Structural, Mechanical, Industrial, Chemical, and Engineering/Computer Science or equivalent, B.Arch. & B. Planning, or M.Tech. in Geological Technology and Geophysical Technology or equivalent, or M.B.A. or M.C.A. or M.Sc. in Physics/ Geophysics/Geology / Mathematics) can all have eligibility to take this for M.Tech course. 

Hi Siddhesh, the cutoff varies every year based on various factors like number of test takers, number of seats available, difficulty level of exams etc. However based on previous cutoffs, you have high chances to get admission in IIT Roorkee for this cutoff. You can refer to this link below for various cutoffs for various courses in IIT Roorkee,

Hii Akhilesh,

Sorry dear but according to last year data IIT Roorkee is not available at this score.

but there are many top IITs waiting for you, like -

• IIT Gandhinagar(Materials Science and Engineering)
• IIT Kanpur(Material Science and Engineering)
• IIT Indore(Metallurgy Engineering and Meterial Science)
• IIT Bombay(Metallurgical Engineering and Materials Science)
• IIT Ropar(Center for Biomedical Engineering)
• IIT Kanpur(Photonics Science and Engineering)
• IIT BHU(School of Biomedical Engineering)
• IIT Kanpur(Material Science and Engineering)
• IIT Patna (Physics)

I hope this will solve your query.

Good luck.

Hello dear, 

As you have scored 36 marks in gate 2019 in Civil engineering, you have very very less chance to get seat in IIT roorkee as previous year cutoff for Civil engineering is 55 in 100 .

• Nanotechnology
• Disaster mitigation and Management
• Physics
• Earthquake engineering
• AHEC

• I hope this would have helped you. All the best!

Hello Saurabh,

Nanotechnology is an advanced field and those with M.tech can join engineering firms and research labs. In IIT Roorkee placement scenario in nanotechnology cant be called very good, not very bad though but most of the students prefer to go for research or a Ph.D. or teaching after M.tech.

If you want a good career in India, scope in nanotechnology here is still in the development stage. In India, it is still at the educational level not at the implementation level. Research labs and institutions such as IISc, TIFR, NCBS, and IITs are performing research in this field. If you are interested in working in the industry with Nanotechnology then options are not many. You may find a very few companies working on nanotechnology where you may find recruitment. But if research interests you then you can join any one of the prestigious institutions listed above or move abroad for pursuing it.

Nanotechnology is doing very well abroad in nations such as USA, UK, Singapore, Germany, China, etc in terms of R&D. There has been significant development towards the usage of Nanotechnology in cosmetics, food and textiles and medicines also(Nanomedicine).

Though slowly yet opportunities in this career field are growing. Soon there will be numerous job sectors in which you can be employed such as

Environmental observing, control

Food science including quality control and packaging

Forensics

federal lab research

Military and national security

Energy capture and storage

Electronic industries

Material science including textiles, polymers, packaging, and many more areas.

Hope it helps!

All the best!

Hello Uday,

I would like to say that, in any institute or college you may study, because every institutes have their own way of teaching, but if you want to know exactly that which is better, then you should ask the individuals who is or who was studying in that institute.
You should focus on yourself and your study.

Thanks for query on this platform, you may visit again for further queries.

All the best.

Hi Bhanwar, the cutoff varies every year based on various factors like number of seats available number of test takers difficulty level of exams etc. However going with the past years cutoff, you have very high chances to get through IIT Roorkee and very good chances to get through IIT Guwahati. The cutoffs range around 640 at IIT Guwahati and that around 580 in IIT Roorkee for VLSI course.
