Which course has better scope, BCA or B.Sc in IT?

Both courses have great opportunities. BCS IT is concept oriented, it will teach you the core concept of IT and you will have to study science subjects too. On other hand BCA is application oriented, teach current technologies, platforms. One can join BCA from science, commerce and arts background. But to pursue B.Sc. IT, you need to have a background of Science. B.Sc. IT is a general course and BCA is a technical course, so getting job from BCA is easy than B.Sc. IT. After B.Sc. IT, you can do M.Sc. IT or MCA both. But after BCA you can only do MCA. Best universities for doing BCA and B.Sc. IT are: Lovely Professional University- Punjab, VIT University Tamilnadu, Jamia Millia Islamia University Delhi, NMIMS Mumbai, Anna University Tamil Nadu, University of Mumbai, University of Kolkata, Pune University, University of Hyderabad, JNU Delhi, Delhi University and The Maharaj Sayaji Rao University.

Hello, BCA vs B.Sc. (IT) Computer Science (BCS) Information Technology (IT) is a growing field in India, and is looked upon as one of the industries that can generate numerous jobs. A Science student interested in joining the IT bandwagon is usually confused about the many courses on offer at the undergraduate level and might end up joining a course which might not be as beneficial as some other course. For example, confusion may arise when choosing between BCA (Bachelor of Computer Applications) and B.Sc. Computer Science. We have listed some of the difference in these courses to help you reach a decision B.Sc (Computer Science) The B.Sc. CS course mainly focuses on the mathematical and theoretical foundations of computing, rather than teaching specific technologies that may quickly become outdated. The course prepares you for higher education. Eligibility: 10+ 2 Pass in Science stream with Physics, Chemistry & Maths. Education after B.Sc: M.Sc, (provided that its recognised by the UGC or AIU) followed by an M.Tech, or an MCA are options open to you after your B.Sc. In Computer Science. An M.Tech may be available to you after you sit for the GATE conducted by the IITs or the entrance examinations of individual universities offering the course. Jobs after B.Sc: Students will usually go immediately for higher education after B.Sc. But jobs do exist; they can take on positions as software professionals (testers and developers) in IT companies. Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA) Another thing to consider when comparing BCA & B.Sc. Computer Science is that BCA is more professionally oriented; it prepares you for post-graduate or research work and also creates professional manpower for problem solving through application of computer Science at the interface of business and technology. BCA can also be pursued via distance learning. It covers: computer Science, programming, database design, software engineering, networks and information systems Eligibility Criteria: 50+% at HSC with a Math background + an entrance test. Education after BCA: MCA and M.Tech are usually the popular options. MBA, M.Sc. PGDCA are other options. Jobs after BCA: Software related jobs in testing and developing are common options made available to you. Hope you will be clear after reading this and will be able to take your decision.

B.Sc IT: It is a degree course of 3 years. It can be considered as a simple academic course. This course mainly deals with soft computing and placing of mathematical and theoretical concepts. Moreover, students of B.Sc Information technology learns about programming language, algorithms, Computer Architecture and organization, Data Algorithms, Data Structures and dealing with new techniques and boosting them to invent new ones. Here, the student also learns details about hardware components of the computer and apart from that also about Database Management Systems, C Programming, Computer Fundamentals, UNIX and Java Programming etc. Opportunities: After completing this course, one can get higher education and be a lecturer or get absorbed in various IT and software companies. You can appear in GATE to get admission to M.Tech courses after completing M.Sc in computer Science or even directly pursue M.Tech after doing B.Sc in IT. Some sectors, where a student of computer Science can get absorbed easily are Banks, Database Management Companies, Consultancies, Design Support Firms, E-Commerce Industry, Data Communications Companies, Order Processing, Simulations Manufacturers, Stock Exchange and in Universities Eligibility: You should have passed class 12th with minimum 50% marks and having Maths, Physics and Chemistry as their primary subject. BCA: Bachelor of computer application is also a degree course of 3 years. In this undergraduate programme one learns about operating system, DBMS, Digital, electronics and many more areas of networking and IT systems. This is more of a professional course type and here one also learns about management of business and accountancy. So, we can say that this course acts as a boundary between both technical and business field. This course implements the ideas in both the fields and helps to develop these sectors. Opportunities: after passing this three year course, there are very good and abundant gates that open up for your career. You can apply for MCA after the completion of BCA or else work in various corporate companies such as WIPRO, TCS, etc. Where you get hired as software technique. Eligibility: At least 50% marks are required in class 12th boards to get admission in this course, but Maths has to be one of the compulsory subjects in your intermediate course.
