is that m.sc software system is good course

wat salary will i get after my graduation in m.sc software systems

for b.com passed student which course is best mca, msc or mba ????

MCA stands for Master of Compute Applications. This is a 3 year Graduation program in the field of IT being offered by several colleges in India.

M.Sc stands for Master of Science. The duration of this course is 2 years.

In your M.Sc course, you can opt for several subjects like

M.Sc in Computer Science
M.Sc in Mathematics
M.Sc in Physics etc.

You can choose the area with which you want to do M.Sc course.

Such a kind of facility is not there for MCA course.

There will be good career scope and job opportunities for the candidates after completion of MCA course when compared to M.Sc candidates.

Many of the IT companies will hire MCA candidates and only some companies will hire M.Sc candidates.

You will be having more exposure to subject knowledge in MCA course than in M.Sc course.

As you have completed BCA course, my suggestion would be to opt for MCA course at your Post Graduation level.

Choose the Entrance Exam and know the syllabus for the same.

Get the required books and model papers and prepare well for them.

Get good rank in the Entrance Exam so that you will get admission for this course in a top college which will further benefit you in getting job through campus placements itself.

Wish you all the best.
