Am I eligible to do software engineering course after completion of 12th standard arts course? What should be the step which we need to follow for the same? Can you please provide me the complete details on the same as soon as possible? Thanks!

No, You are not eligible for Software Engineering course like B.tech in Computer science or Information technology, BCA & MCA, B.Sc in Computer Science etc.

Because to get admission in B.Tech you should have Science streams in 12th with 60% and to get admission in BCA course you should have Math subject as optional subject in 12th and if you have Math subject in your ARTS stream then there is one chance to apply for BCA course and hence can continue your higher studies in software filed like MCA.

If you are completing your Graduate course as BCA followed by MCA as Master degree course then you can easily get jobs in software domain. At the moment you just need to take career decision as per admission's rules & regulations.

With Arts stream , You are not eligible to apply for software engineering. For software engineering , You should have passed 12th science with maths as compulsory subject. You also required to appear entrance exam JEE Main.

- Instead of software engineering , You can apply for BCA to enter in software field. You can also pursue your higher study MCA after completion of BCA.
