    HI Subhankar,
    The difference lies in the fact that you can specialise in a certain subject in BCA (Hons), whereas, BCA (Regular) gives you an overview of all those subjects taught in the honours course. It is always better to go for Hons course. You are given few more additional advantages at LPU, if you opt for Hons. Subject such as in hostel pooling, books issue at library, elective selection and few more. Hons. student will be studying one more subject as an additional from regular course students.
    LPU offers ample practical experience to students in the form of workshops, projects, on-job training, etc. Placements in LPU are best.

Best wishes to you also.

    But people of arts background can also do BCA in LPU even when they are too weak in maths. LPU has a reputation of being inclusive and providing favourable learning environment where students across different streams of study perform well. Math is but only a subject taught in the BCA but you will get good core courses in maths and will also get extra coaching so that you will be developed to gain confidence and enhance your mathematical skills.

Absolutely! Having a humanities background is no barrier to pursuing Fine Arts at Chandigarh University.

The programme welcomes students from all streams, including humanities, as long as they meet the minimum requirement of 50% marks in their 12th exams. Many humanities students find the programme a natural extension of their academic interests, as the curriculum often connects with cultural, historical, and social themes. For example, a student who studied history might bring unique perspectives into courses like painting or applied arts.

The university values creativity and passion over specific subjects studied in school.
