MCA/BCA is very good courses.

you can take BCA if you have MATHS/STATISTICS/BUSINESS MATHEMATICS til your 12th.

MCA is masters of computer application,it is 2/3 years degree course.

This course provide very good opportunities of employment opportunities

Hi


BCA - Bachelor in Computer Applications

This course is of 3 years duration. Its a full time graduation course and it can be done at any age as there is no age limit for this course.

This basically deals with the fundamentals of the Computer Applications, basic programming languages like C, C++, and Core java. Apart from that it also has discreet maths, networks, DBMS, and other related subjects.


BCA can be done by anybody who has passed class 12th from a recognized school or state board. However Mathematics in class 12th is a compulsory subject to take up this course in graduation.


Now coming to MCA - Master's in Computer Applications, its the post graduate course of the BCA. Its of duration 2 years, and can be done only by a graduate.

Maths is also another requirement for it. Either in 12th or one of subjects in graduation.


Now coming to the future aspects of the two courses, firstly I would say that computers and IT are in a boom at the moment in the market.

Its got huge demands of fresh engineers, software's, updates etc..So certainly BCA and MCA graduates would hold a key role ahead in the near future.


If you are doing just BCA, i am afraid you would not get much of work in terms of higher job profiles, better salaries, etc.
But if you manage to do an MCA, then you can consider yourself to be at par with the Computer Science engineering graduates.

Thus future prospects are good for MCA graduates as you can go for Software testing, software development, network analyst, network security, protocols, website designing, java programming, hacking etc...


So go ahead.

All the best

1. Go for higher studies,
2. Find a job.

1. Go for higher studies ::

After BCA you can go for higher studies like :

* MCA, it is a good option to you and related to your subject,
* MBA, I think after MCA you can attempt for MBA which have a bright future,
* M.Tech, if you crack GATE examination then you will be eligible for M.Tech and also if
you want to be a lecturer or a professor then only choose this,
* Short term course like :

i. Core Java,
ii. Advanced Java,
iii. J2EE,
iv. ASP .NET using VB,
v. ASP .NET using C#,
vi. ASP .NET using J#,
vii.C/C++,

2. Find a job :

After BCA you can also find a job in some top companies like :

* TCS
* Wipro
* CTS
