Hello,
CSE graduates strong foundation in Computational Science with Mathematics background. It exposes students on Systems aspect of programming. Whereas BCA MCA emphasis is on Business Applications development and Programming. CSE graduates can do Apps and Systems programming with ease whereas BCA MCA graduates will find it difficult to do systems programming. MCA us treated equal to B.Tech CSE. CSE graduates are cream of engineering colleges as only toppers are able to get admission in CSE. Becauae of this, Indian IT industry prefers B.Tech CSE grads over MCA grads. Based on my personal experience in Industry for 33 years, I can say B.Tech CSE graduates are superior to others graduates in CS knowledge and they can be deployed on live projects with ease and their superior programming skills are easily visible in their performance in industry. All the best.

Hi Sarbajit,
CCNA is a popular certification in computer networking developed by Cisco Systems. Cisco created the CCNA to recognize basic competency in installation and support of medium-sized networks.
The core CCNA certification can be obtained by passing a single 90-minute written exam. The exam has no prerequisites, although Cisco and other companies offer various formal training courses to help students prepare. Topics covered on the CCNA exam include
* LAN and WAN design (including the OSI model)
* IP addressing
* routers and routing protocols (including OSPF, EIGRP and RIP)
* VLAN (virtual LAN) and WLAN (wireless LAN)
* network security and management (including ACLs)
The basic qualification for getting into networking is preferably a Degree / Diploma in Computer Science / Electrical / Electronics / Telecommunication followed by a course in Computer Hardware. People with non-engineering background who possesses good knowledge of Computer fundamentals can also enter this field.
In addition, recruiters prefer certain global certifications. Some of the popular International Certifications available for LAN/WAN Administration are MCSE, UNIX Admin, LINUX Admin, CNE,etc.,Whereas for WAN Administration you need CCNA,CCNP,CCDA,CCDP,CCIE.
Internet Security is an emerging technology in networking, which can be implemented by using Firewalls. A large part of the firewall implementation worldwide is done by Checkpoint/Computer Associates.
Fee for this course is around Rs.15000
