Eligibility: It is more of an academic course and admission to most universities is based on your performance at the HSC level. Having physics, chemistry and maths is essential to apply for this course.
Education after B.Sc: You can pursue courses like M.Sc or MCA. You can even pursue an M.Tech, after you complete your M.Sc, if the M.Sc(CS) degree is recognised by UGC or AIU (Association of Indi

That totally depends on what you want to do after graduation. I mean if you want to work for a company as a developer then you should opt for BCA but if you want to be a professor then B.Sc.

The focus is on theoretical knowledge rather than BCA where you will learn about applications. Below are some of the best Private Universities:-
BITS Pilani, ICT Mumbai, Mumbai. VIT Vellore, Vellore. Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology - [TIET], Patiala. ITER B
