Hey Nidhin

Surely, job opportunities vary from department to department and from course to course. However, it is very difficult to generalize it on the basis of whether it is different on the nature of the course.

For instance, students from computer science department in IIT KGP got placed very early in the placement season this year. Similarly, every student from integrated M.Sc Economics all got placed and the average salary for this department was much higher than most other 4 yr BTech departments. While dpeartments like manufacturing sciences and Engineering and Industrial Engineering and management fared rather poorly in placements.

However, every undergraduate student does get a job on once graduating from the campus. Hence, job opportunities will never be an issue if you enter any IIT with any of the courses mentioned by you.
