After bca which is better mca or msc in computer science?i wanna save 1 yr.plz provide me best option.

Hi, Although both these courses are lucrative options, going for any of these course will depend on career aspirations and the technical competence of prospective students. M.Sc. Computer Science is mainly focused on software development and application. A person who has pursued this post graduation can perform in different areas like teaching, software development, testing, networking, etc. MCA covers various topics related to programming and designing. The career opportunities for these postgraduate candidates are very huge. One can perform in various roles like software developer, Software consultant, software engineer, systems analyst, etc. Key Difference: MCA is a 3 year programme where as M.Sc. computer science is a 2 year programme. MCA covers the software and its application related field. M.Sc. computer science covers the both hardware and software field. A person with strong background in computational and scientific field is only able to opt for this course. Those who have pursued a graduation in computer science or computer technology alone can opt for M.Sc. computer Science, while MCA can be done by any science graduates. Which is better: The career opportunities for both these graduates are many. But most MNC's prefer MCA graduates to M.Sc. graduates. This is because the MCA graduates are well aware of the software applications. But for developing new software, M.Sc. graduates are preferred. MCA’s are most suitable for the working purposes in various companies. While considering a bright career, MCA course will be better than M.Sc. computer science. Feel free to discuss further.

Dear Sandipan, MSc will be better for you. It will not only save your year but also equip you for Lectureship Jobs in any colleges. Completing master early means 1 more year to try for Govt jobs as per age bar. And you can complete your MCA if you want to do so even after MSc , through Distance Learning directly in 3rd year. So you will have 2 masters instead of 1 , if you do MSc first. Good Luck !
