Which course to pursue among MCA and MBA for better career prospects?

Dear shalini Greetings! Both the fields you have mentioned, have great scope but the field selection depends on what you have done in graduation. As you have completed your Grad. in BCA, MCA would be a better option because in this way you won`t be going in a totally new field. And you will be going for specialization in what you have previously done. But if you would like to explore new dimensions and take on challenges then MBA is also good option for you . You can choose your field among More than 10 of specialization available in MBA Like HR, Marketing, Finance, International business, Retail management, Facility and waste management etc. Regards

Hi, After completing BCA you have 2 options: 1.To opt for a job. 2.To opt for further studies (MBA, MCA etc) However as per your profile I would suggest you to work for 2-3 years and then opt for further studies. The advantage of this step would be: - You will gain relevant work experience. - After working you will know which course to pursue that can further enhance your career prospects, i.e. if you wish to build your career in computer field then you may pursue MCA, whereas if you are interested in management then you may pursue MBA. - If you are interested in pursuing MBA, then this work experience would help you to decide which specialization to opt in MBA that can further enhance your career prospects.However as per your profile pursuing MBA in IT would be the best option for you. I would request Raj 29680 to give you detailed information regarding various career prospects after completing MBA in IT. - Candidates with work experience will have competitive advantage over other candidates with no work experience during MBA admission. - This work experience of yours will also be an added advantage for you during campus recruitment in MBA, as most companies would surely prefer an experience candidates over a fresher for a job. - Finally if you work for some years then you may yourself manage the expenses for your further studies. I would suggest that before opting for any course you must first decide in which field you wish to build your career and accordingly you can select the best course as per your interest and liking. Feel free to raise more questions. Appreciate by giving it thumbs up or marking as best. All the Best.
