There are numerous options available for students who have finished their BCA or MBA. They can either go for MCA or find a good job. Job opportunities are not restricted within India, as candidates will be able to get lucrative jobs abroad.

Apart from this, it can be said that the BCA degree is in demand with both the public as well as private sectors. Details on what to do after graduating in BCA are explained below.

Candidates who have finished their degree in computer applications can try out jobs as web-designers or Software Developers. In addition to this, they can also opt for a career in Systems Management. Besides Software development organizations, hardware companies also take in students of BCA.  Private sector jobs after BCA are quite limited.
