The verdict
Good fit
DTU’s Math & Computing program is a hidden gem for quant careers in India. With a 95% placement rate and an average CTC of ₹21 LPA at elite firms like Citadel and Goldman Sachs, the ROI is excellent. However, the coursework is intense, the batch is small and competitive, and the career path is narrowly focused on finance/tech—if you’re unsure about coding, math, or finance, a broader CSE program may be safer.
