Hi,

Both having own value and different career path. If you want to do research than you may consider agriculture otherwise you can opt Math Hons and afterwards you may pursue data analysis or MBA finance or Actuarial science or development studies and start your career with handsome salary.


Both are great career options and have good career options . If we talk about B. Sc in agriculture then Lots of Government as well as Private job opportunities are present in front of Graduates. Talking about Government jobs, State Agriculture Departments recruits Graduates to fill up Officer level posts. Government Banks also recruits Graduates to fill up Officer level posts (generally dealing with Loans).

After pursuing a simple B. Sc Maths course, students can become teachers, technical writers or research analysts. But it is advisable that they first pursue M. Sc degree and then head-out to secure a job . In order to get an edge over their competitors, candidates can opt to pursue more specialized B. Sc courses, which would make them more employable right after completing their B. Sc degree.
