4. Present & future prospective of the course:
B.Sc./M.Sc. mathematics course has influence over various fields such as science, engineering, finance, statistics and computing. The study of mathematics can be classified into two types :
- Applied mathematics
- Pure mathematics
B.Sc./M.Sc. computer science course focuses on the discipline of computer science. The course covers important topics related to computer science such as – coding, programming languages, computer hardware and software, networking, database management, information technology, mathematics, statistics and electronics.

6. Career growth
The demand for mathematics experts has grown exponentially in a number of careers—and so has the interest in these jobs. In fact, mathematician, actuary, and statistician jobs are among the most promising career paths based on their income levels, growth outlook, and low-stress work.
7. Anything special-qualitative
The regular route for a student is a three-year B.Sc. course followed by a two-year M.Sc. programme in mathematics, after which she or he could join a doctoral programme in a recognized university or research institution like TIFR in Mumbai, IMSc in Chennai, HRI in Allahabad. Interestingly, all these are autonomous aided institutions that are fully supported by the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) of the Government of India.
