B.Tech. (Mathematics and Computing): IIT Guwahati

Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) in Mathematics and Computing

This programme, first of its kind in the country, has come into existence due to the need of sophisticated mathematics for modern scientific investigations and technological developments. It provides a fusion of mathematics with computer science and financial engineering. The curriculum is designed to provide students with in-depth theoretical background and practical training in computer science, numerical computing and mathematical finance. Graduates of this programme will be ready for careers in software industries, financial institutions and government organizations or to pursue research. The duration of the the programme is four years and students are admitted through JEE.
