  • M.Sc in Maths is a two year programme. It offers you a wide range of jobs such as mathematics professor, data analyst, etc. And you can apply in both private and public sector. But, in order to get a job in next 1-2 years, you must be getting one immediately after finishing the course as it alone would be taking 2 years. On the other hand, you can apply for government exams right after finishing the UG degree and continuous attempts maybe can get you a job within 2 years. But then, you would only be opening up to public sector jobs.
