    Dear Applicant, As a student of lovely professional university I can tell you about this.

    BCA is a three-year curriculum that teaches the fundamentals of computer applications and serves as a solid basis for subsequent study. It includes a summer internship and a final project. Furthermore, any student who majored in Humanities is able to seek a BCA degree. Then what was the point of putting additional work towards PCM? B Tech CSE is a four-year curriculum that aims to provide students with a solid foundation as well as understanding of a wide range of innovative technologies, programming languages, and professional credentials. It is a custom-made professional course that prepares students for employment in a variety of se

    BCA is named as Bachelor of compute application so it is complete based on your computer applications, you will read all concepts related to computer technology and you have not to read any boring subjects that are not in your future use so if you only want to take knowledge then BCA is quite impressive and if you want to explore so much subjects then you have to explore more and more about B.Tech and you have also understood all concepts of it through this and you can not able to get some good companies in starting but as time spent you will get more and more companies through your experience.

    B.Tech is a 4 year programme which is offered in various branches. CSE is one of the most demanded branch which too offers some specializations along with it.

    B.Tech definitely offers better opportunities than BCA after graduation but your options must depend on the type of colleges you are getting and the amount money you want to invest in graduation. If you are looking forward to jobs after graduation B.Tech is the right programmes. However, if you want to pursue post-graduation in the field then BCA and MCA are can be a good career choice for you. Another advantage of BCA is that you don't have to appear for highly competitive entrance exams. For MS you should go for B.Tech. Admission in any programme depends on qualifying the Eligibility criteria for that programme. So, as per the Eligib

    It depends upon your interest. B.Tech syllabus is a far more comprehensive and professionally valued course than BCA primarily because it delves into a lot more subjects than BCA. There are lot many institutes which offer many courses under its peripheries. Th point is how to DE-CODE the best one which is a bit challenging task. I will advice you to identify a university whose content is updated as per the industry requirements, good rankings, good infrastructure and undoubtably the best placements. Institutions such as IIT, NIT, VIT and LPU etc. Can be thought off. Out of the above mentioned institutes, I am actually not well versed w

    BCA includes software languages, database management it also includes topics of management. It offers a holistic knowledge about the application level of computers. On the other hand, B.Tech is a more comprehensive and professional course for students who aim to be a pro in technicalities and also because the students get an additional one year to devote to the learning process. YES! Engineers have an edge. B.Tech is better than BCA as you have to do MCA to get a better job. As a faculty at LPU, I would recommend LPU for B.Tech courses. LPU Engineering school has been ranked 66th among the top Engineering Universities and colleges of I
