    Hello buddy, BCA (Bachelors in Computer Application) and B.Sc. Computer Science (Bachelors in Computer Science) both are almost same and has same courses. The major difference in both the courses is that BCA is somewhat like hardware related and how to apply in real time, whereas B.Sc. Is completely software related.

    B Sc Computer Science Vs BCA: Difference B Sc (CS) is more concept-oriented while BCA is application-oriented. However BCA and B Sc (CS) both is useful for students. The BCA course will teach you about current techniques and applications, giving you a basic idea of the programming languages currently used.
    The importance of Computer Science/IT cannot be undermined in the current times. This single branch of engineering has undergone a sea change and offers a myriad of career prospects to its students. Lovely Professional University is one of the best universities to pursue B.Tech.

    Hi,
    If you want to get those CS feels, I believe B.Sc. Would be a better choice as BCA becomes more IT-relevant. B.Sc. IT and BCA are almost the same but B.Sc. CS is quite tough and core of computer Science. Thank you.

    BCA includes a bit of management as well. So if you are interested in humanities and want to be an IT professional then go for BCA and if you are interested in pure science then go for B.Sc.

    If you talk about BCA it has different scope, placements and packages are similar not much difference. B.Sc. IT/CS is related to technology. Sector for BCA is expanding but to get a core job, you have to go for MCA but in B.Sc. You may start career afterwards bit easy. Now, the main concern is from where? As in normal colleges, they will definitely not be going to give you placement as it's difficult. But, I can enlist some universities for your help - Lovely Professional University, Manav Rachna University, Sharda University etc. Few of these universities provide extensive learning programs and exposure to the students. Some of them p

    BCA is better for computer science. BCA stands for Bachelor of Computer Application. This course is designed specifically for students who are interested in learning computer languages. The students here are more interested towards the application of knowledge of computer science. In this undergraduate programme, one learns about the 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 the management of business and accountancy. So, we can say that this course acts as a boundary between both technical and business field.
