An M.Sc. degree from an NIT will surely fetch you good offers at private engineering institutes as a professor in Mathematics.

Hope you're doing well.

Though the courses you mentioned, have so much differences, it is difficult to compare. It depends on what discipline you are ACTUALLY interested in. However, I'll highlight some key points for comparing the two institutions:

• NIT Rourkela has a higher ranking, i.e 16, against 119 ranking of VSSUT.
• NIT Rourkela has a grading of A when compared to B grade of VSSUT.
• The median salary for btech is around 6.5 LPA at NIT Rourkela and 3.6 LPA at VSSUT.
