Hi Mulayam
What is BCA
Bachelor of Computer Applications or BCA is a three year degree course taught in several institutes and universities across India. A typical BCA course deals with software design and data base management and working with multiple data in the computer. BCA deals with subjects like C, C languages, Data Base Management, Logical Analysis, Operating Systems, Software Engineering and Client Server Technology.
Scope: A BCA program is the first important step for higher studies especially MCA. It prepares a student for IT and other professions either directly related or after higher studies. BCA provides a student with the much needed exposure of Computer Language applications and prepares a student for a Masters program in Computer Applications (MCA).
Job Prospects: BCA gives a student with a solid platform to further his career in the field of technology but it is strongly recommended that a student should opt for MCA to further his prospects in this competitive world. BCA is a good course but it is simply a bachelor's level degree and not much importance is given by both private and government organizations especially when compared to a B.Tech course. Therefore one should join MCA after BCA which will improve a student's prospects immensely and companies also attach the same weightage as a B.Tech degree holder.
After completing BCA students can start as Junior Programmer or a Software Tester and then move higher up the ranks and attain the role of a Senior Programmer. IT industry is booming in India and even in times of global recession, the Indian scene was relatively stable.
Eligibility: A student from any stream can apply for a BCA course provided he or she has Mathematics and English at the 10 2 level with an average of 50% marks.
But i Must say B.Tech is a much advanced and comprehensive course compared to BCA. B Tech deals much more about the technical aspects and develops the engineer in you while BCA is a degree providing a base for higher studies.
So do Btech(cs) rather than doing BCA if you have option.
Good Luck

Hi Kapil,
As far as I know you can do training after your 3rd year 2nd semester.
To get placed as an intern it will be an added advantage if you know any one working in the company then take their reference, by which you can easily join the company.
To apply for internship you need to take a letter from your placement cell stating that you are academically strong and have good behavior and they can refer you to that particular company.
Along with this letter you can post your resume at the companies career portal to get your training done and can apply for the internship program.
To help you further in detail I would like to invite Arun Mishra. Robin Agrawal to share their expertise.
