Which course should I choose after B.Com- MBA in IT or MCA? What is the future scope?

Both the subjects chosen have their own prospects and career alternatives but you need to select what interests you more and you have the required skills. Let me brief you with the scopes. MCA (Master of Computer Applications) is a professional master's degree in computer Science. It focuses on providing a theoretical as well as practical training to students in the related field. Computer Applications is a use of computer to solve a problem or to accomplish a particular job. In MCA the more one code in the lab, the more one becomes employable is the credo behind the design of this programme. It is ensured that the learner has coded more than 2000 lines of code during industry internship projects. They just done only script a programme in the most happening platforms but are also taught to be resource savvy. Robotics, Cloud Computing and advanced programming techniques make this programme unique and make the learner stand out in crowd. The subject is more about coding. This will open the gateway of IT & ITES companies. While MBA degree aims at providing fundamental education in business and management principles. The MBA course allows students to specialize in one of the multiple specialisation areas, such as international business, finance, real estate, computer information systems, marketing or accounting. MBA provides a headstart for candidates to develop management skills. The course takes a student over the core areas of management including marketing, sales, strategy management etc. And it also covers key areas of finance and economics. Plus, soft skill development such as business communication is also taught in the MBA course. It is more about the management principles, planning and organizing. This opens a wide career option in Marketing, HR, Finance, Retail, IT Customer Service etc. There are few good university & colleges that you can select for safe placements, like: NIMS, Amity University, Lovely Professional University, SRM University, etc.

LPU is the best place for quality education as well as placements in all the programmes. LPU has a very good placement record in an MBA programme. One of my friends did MBA in HR at LPU and got placed in an MNC as an Executive HR. Also, in my view, I think you should not worry about the placements. If you work hard in the course and learn as much as you can, any company visiting the campus would be happy to hire you. However, you must not neglect to polish your communication skills as well, because companies will check that in their interviews. LPU provides plenty of opportunities to its students to take part in events, competitions, fests in order to let them grow their personality and give them a chance to polish their skills. The package depends on what the student can show to the recruiters that, how much he is worth or deserves. There were some students who cracked the placement and got offered 21 LPA, while many failed to do so. On average, the MBA students of LPU are offered and placed in the starting package of 4.5 TO 6 LPA (Fixed salary) while there may be cases of students getting less than that or more than that. Every year around 100-150 companies visit LPU to recruit MBAs. Among the companies are some big names like Amazon, Flipkart, Moody Analytics, ICICI, HDFC, AXIS, FEDERAL BANK, WNS GLOBAL, ITC, 99 Acres, COLGATE, ASIAN PAINTS, BERGER, NERO LAC, CAVIN CARE, etc. , from all domains visit LPU to recruit the students and these are good companies.

LPU is the greatest place to go for high-quality education and job placement in all programmes. In an MBA programme, LPU has a very good placement record. One of my classmates completed an MBA in HR at LPU and was hired as an Executive HR in a multinational corporation. In addition, I believe you should not be concerned about the placements. Any company visiting the campus would be pleased to hire you if you work hard in class and learn everything you can. However, you must not overlook the importance of honing your communication abilities, as employers will assess this during the interview process. LPU provides numerous possibilities for its students to participate in events, competitions, and festivals in order to help them develop their personalities and sharpen their talents. The package is determined by the student's ability to demonstrate to recruiters how much he is worth or deserves. Some students succeeded in cracking the placement and were offered 21 LPA, while others did not. LPU MBA students are often offered and placed in the 4.5 to 6 LPA beginning package (Fixed salary) Lovely Professional University's Business School is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP). For more details of placements at LPU, you may refer to the LPU website. Hope it helps!

I suggest you to go for MBA after completing your B.Com. As MBA will enhance both your management and marketing skills. Further doing MBA from a good and reputed college will provide you good platform and exposure. Future scope after doing MBA are as, MBA is good option after B.Com: You have to first decide which stream you would like to have a job in. You have done courses in both commerce and IT. For either of them you need to have the required conceptual knowledge. If you plan to be in the IT field then probably you need to do some programming courses too like from NIIT or APTECH. Make sure you well prepared for the tests and the interview round. All the best.

I will suggest you to do MBA after B.Com for more career opportunities. The degree programme in Maters in Business Administration is one of the most jobs provider educational degree course in the world. If you are not choosing LPU for MBA, make sure you are into Iims or the deemed government business schools of India. Moreover, I would suggest you go through NIRF rankings 2020 for B-Schools and plan accordingly. LPU has been ranked 50th. Also, spending more money on colleges has nothing to do with the quality of education. It has to do with the quality of their infrastructure (for private colleges). I did MBA from LPU.

MCA is very best branch in India MCA post graduates are hired both by Government agencies NTPC, GAIL, BHEL, etc. and private IT companies like Accenture, Infosys, Wipro, TCS, Cognizant, IBM, American Express, HCL, H Pand so on. As a fresher, an MCA professional can expect anything around2.4 to 3.4 lakhs, and with experience, sky is the limit! With some years of experience, a Software Engineer can become a Lead, an Analyst, a Project Manager, a General Manager and so on. Initially MCA students are given a few weeks of training on the job, before they get started on LIVE projects. They need to work in different roles and areas in the beginning and then gradually specialize in a specific field. Career opportunities after MCA: After getting an MCA degree, one can enter any of the following roles: 1.Software Developer/Programmer/Engineer 2.Troubleshooter: 3.System Analyst 4.Software Application Architect: 5.Software Consultant 6?Technical Writer
