After graduating you can pursue PG in various fields of math such as applied mathematics, statistics, computational mathematics etc. The job opportunities includes teaching, employment opportunuties in banking and finance sectors, insurance companies, finance analyst in private organizations.
BCA course is more oriented towards technology. You can do MCA after BCA or work in IT industry. There is always a requirement for Software field for skilled engineers and they hire not just B.E or B.Tech, but also BCA students.You can apply for companies depending on your interest in CS field.
