What is the difference between Integrated 5 Years Masters only degree as compared 5 Years Dual Degree of Bachelors and Masters that are offered by various IITs. Does it matter whether you have one Masters or both Bachelors and Masters when you do 5 years course in IITs. For example: IIT Kharagpur offers Mathematics and Computing (5 Years, Integrated Master of Science) whereas IIT Varanasi offers Mathematics and Computing (5 Years, Bachelor and Master of Technology (Dual Degree)). What is the difference? Does it rally matter. Your response is appreciated.

Dear student 
In some institute there is 5 year Msc course, Please check the curriculum if they provide bachelor’s degree after 3 year then only pick the course. In this case the only option left to you will be doing PHD. 
But in dual degree you will be provided with Bsc as well as Msc separetly. In this case you will have the option to left Msc couse and move abroad for Masters course, 
Just check for the curriculum in first case, if you will get Bsc degree after 3 year , that is completely fine to pursue.

Dear Student,
 
There is no difference between an integrated masters course and a dual degree course offered by various IITs. Both of these mean that you will be granted a B Tech and an M Tech degree at the end of your course.
