What is the difference between integrated MA and integrated MA and BA? Which of the either has better career prospects?

Hi, Indian Institute of Technology Madras - Department of Humanities and Social Sciences The Department's unique five year integrated programme, launched in 2006, leads to Master of Arts (M.A.) degree in three major streams - Development Studies, Economics and English Studies. With this programme, IITM is poised to cross a milestone in fulfilling its role in higher education in liberal arts and social sciences. The M.A. programme reflects the multi-disciplinary nature of the fundamental concepts in humanities and social sciences. During the first two years, the students are introduced to a variety of common subjects related to all the three major disciplines. Such a curriculum aims to produce masters in Humanities and Social Sciences to cater to the growing demands of academia, government, public and private sector enterprises, NGOs, and other organisations. The programme also provides an opportunity for our students and faculty to be in close and constant touch with those of the Engineering, Sciences and Management departments.

The difference may be single certification and dual certification. On the contrary, BA can be an exit qualification if the student opts out to exit out of the course after a few years of study without completing MA.
