Plan Beyond the Degree
Pure math roles usually demand an M.Sc., B.Ed., or competitive exam qualification. The 2025 placement drive primarily feeds into IT services, so align your electives and certifications with your end goal — whether that's academics, actuarial science, or data analytics.
The verdict
Worth considering
Pick this if you want a rock-solid, affordable foundation from a historic university and are ready to pursue M.Sc., teaching, or government exams. Think twice if you expect high campus salaries or guaranteed core-math placements immediately after graduation.
