Some people don’t realize that the search engine (like Google) doesn’t show what in the title tag for individual page in your site. The change in page titles is not a new thing to Google search results.
There are many reasons to why Google will select page title apart from what webmaster wants to put in title of the page.

Not all webmasters write high-quality title for the pages to display in the search engines. Sometimes we wonder why Google chose a strange or inaccurate title tags for a page, when it’s not present in title.
“In Google, there are different ways to select the title for displaying in search results” cutts said.
“If title of your page is best then no matter, a user who types something in search results or it doesn’t see related results to their query and is likely to click on it. Hence in those cases we might dig a little bit deeper,” Cutts said.
He also said “we might use your content in your site”. "We might look at the hyperlinks that point to your page and take some text from those links. We may also use Open Directory Project to choose what a good title would be to a webpage. We are looking for best title that will help tothe end user what they looking for."
