Hey aspirant,

It offers 2 years M.Sc. degree, 5 years integrated M.Sc programme, PhD etc.

When it comes to placements, coaching institutes like Aakash, Empower, Books, Avanti, Concept Educations and some software companies also hire Mathematics students. The average salary offered is about Rs 5 lakhs per annum in coaching centres and the average package offered by tech companies is around 6 LPA. Job opportunities for M.Sc students is mostly better in academia that is teaching profession. An M.Sc. degree from an NIT will surely fetch you good offers at private engineering institutes as a professor in Mathematics. You can also opt for further studies, i.e, obtaining a PhD degree which will increase your job prospects and you can expect much higher payscale as a professor in universities than those you may get at software companies.

Hope it helps. All the best!
