Hi Shivendra,
Hi Deep,
Candidates who want to pursue Masters degree programmes in science should have completed three-years Bachelor degree programme in a related stream from a recognized university.
Some universities specify a cutoff or minimum marks that one should have in graduation to be eligible for the M.Sc programmes they offer. Others might ask applicants to appear for entrance exams or interviews or both to prove their competence and knowledge in the subject area they choose.
Higher study options after completing B.Sc in Mathematics:-
Master of Science in Financial Mathematics
Master of Science in Social Research Methods and Statistics
Master of Science in Mathematical Trading and Finance
Master of Science in Mathematics and Computing for Finance
Master of Science in Statistics with Applications in Medicine
Master of Science in Operational Research and Finance
Master of Science in Applied Mathematical Modelling and Scientific Computing
Master of Science in Pure Mathematics
Master of Science in Mathematical economics
Master of Science in Bio-statistics
Master of Science in Applied Mathematics
Master of Science in Agricultural Statistics

Career Prospects:-
A two-year programme, an M.Sc programme can either be academic in nature for those who want to pursue teaching or research as a career, or may be application-based, for those who want to join an industry after completing the course.
While an academic M.Sc programme can lead to further studies or a doctoral-level science programme in related field worldwide, an applied science M.Sc programme is usually considered a terminal degree abroad.

Hi Gagan,
Before you decide what to do it is important that you become aware of a critical factor for success in your chosen profession. Your exam scores are one part of it considering how competitive it is to land a seat in the hallowed campuses of the IITs and other prestigious institutions.
There are numerous branches of space science - astronomy, astrophysics, cosmology, stellar science, planetary science etc. Originally, all these disciplines were considered as part of astronomy, but with recent developments and discoveries, they have become vast enough to be considered as separate fields on their own. Experts in fields such as robotics, satellite technology, medicine, biology, remote sensing, meteorolog etc. may also seek careers in space science after developing the skill sets necessary for the job.There are quite a few institutes in India that train students for pursuing careers in space science and technology. The recently established Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) offers graduate and postgraduate programs in space science and related fields. Apart from IIST, a few other institutes like the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), ISRO Satellite Centre (ISAC), Space Application centre (SAC), National Remote Sensing Agency (NRSA), Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre (LPSC) also offer research opportunities in space science and allied fields. Some of the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) also offer specialization programs (M.Tech) in Space Technology, Astrophysics, Aerospace engineering etc.The eligibility criteria for joining programs in space science and technology vary according to the specific requirements of each job. Admissions to the undergraduate courses at the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) is made on the basis of a candidate's rank in the Joint entrance Examination conducted by IITs. In other places, candidates with B.Sc., M.Sc., B.E., M.E. or Ph.D. are usually selected. Study of science subjects such as Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry at undergraduate level is usually a mandatory requirement. However, before you join a career in space science, it is necessary for you to know the various requirements of the field - which skills to develop, which courses to take, where to study.

Hi Arjun,
B.F.A (Fine Arts) - Stands for Bachelor of Fine Arts. Typically, a Bachelor of Fine Arts is a three year course, minimum eligibility for which is an intermediate (10+2). Fine Arts is an art form which is developed mainly for aesthetics rather than practical application. Subjects studied under this degree are drawing, painting, figure drawing, portraiture, watercolor, art-making concept development, and art history critique.
Eligibility: The eligibility required for Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts is a higher seconday (10+2) pass. Usually, the course duration for this course is 3-4 years in most of the institutes and universities. Foundation and specialization course are taught in the first and remaining years respectively.
The career opportunities for the professionals are huge. They can find employment in various areas like: -

Hi Saurav,
All the branches of engineering are equally good and have tremendous job opportunities. It entirely depends on how well you understand and handle the stream and increase your scope of growth. Different branches of engineering are popular at different places and the popularity depends upon the day to day requirement of that place.
Salary is a function of various factors - I.e. (I) the institute where you have completed your B.Tech + M.Tech. e.g. a graduate from a top institute will command a higher salary. (ii) Your work experience - organization and type of work profile (iii) city - a metropolitan city will have higher salaries as compared to smaller cities and towns. (iv) Your current organization - I.e. where you will be joining - an MNC usually has higher salaries as compared to other organizations. (v) Your work profile I.e. Manager/ AVP, etc. Thus one cannot allocate a figure.
