MCA Program Types:
Master of Computer Applications (MCA) is a three-year (Six
Semester) program after the graduation. This course has been designed to cope
with the ever-increasing demand for computer personnel in almost all occupations,
especially in the IT sector.
MCA course is the most popular choice of Indian students who
are looking for a bright career in the IT sector. This course can be joined
after completion of BCA course. Many students also join that course because BCA
does not offer as many career options as MCA course offers. Moreover, it gives
only a fundamental knowledge of computer languages, which is not sufficient for
getting a wonderful job in IT sector. Besides this, it does not give optimized
environment which MCA offers. Therefore, MCA course has its own significance.
