Which course is better from delhi university- MSC(computer science) or MCA?

MCA stands for Master of Computer Application.
MSC stands for Master of Science.

Both are Master Degree courses done after completing Bachelor Degree in respective streams,However there are some streams where both Master Degree are applicable,in that case it becomes difficult to choose which Master Degree is better to go with.
MSC Post Graduation in Science is basically for non technology subjects such as Physics,Chemistry,Mathematics after completing B.sc in above subjects one tends to go for M.SC,they are non technology related subjects
Where as as MCA is master degree in computer application done after completing BCA which is a Technology related course and after completing BCA one goes for MCA.

In todays world technology related jobs are high in demand and paying handsome salary that is why you see so much engineering colleges and technology colleges are coming up every now and then,so if you are more interested in making little extra money then MCA would be better it will be easier for you to land a job with a technology related Degree in compare to non technology related Degree.

On the other hand if you are interested in study more,learn more,know more then go for MSC as there may not be many jobs after completing M.SC but definitely you will learn a lot it depends if your interested in subjects in M.SC if yes then go only for M.SC other MCA would be better as after MSC you have to may apply for NET in order to get a good job and pursue phd which is a difficult exam to get in,decide upon your priorities.
