    Hi Kushank, A three-year undergraduate programme in computer application is called BCA. The study of computer applications and cutting-edge computing technologies is called a Bachelor of computer applications. It has a three-year duration and offers students an internship to experience the working world. After receiving your BCA. You might work as a software developer, data analyst, web developer, etc. Three years are required to earn a B.Sc. In IT. It might be categorized as a straightforward academic course. This course focuses mostly on placing mathematical and theoretical notions with soft computing. After earning a B.Sc. In IT, yo

    BCA is a three-year UG course in the computer management field. Bachelor of Computer Applications is a study about the latest computing technology and computer applications. In my opinion, BCA is one of the popular courses in India. Here I mention the eligibility criteria for the BCA course. Eligibility criteria for BCA :
    1. Students should have passed the 12th under-recognised board.
    2. Students should have passed with a 50% minimum aggregate score in 12th. If you are looking to get admission to the best BCA colleges for your higher studies then Campushunt will help you to get the best BCA college for your higher studies. In my opinion

    B.Sc. Computer Science is more concept-oriented while BCA is application-oriented. BCA course will teach you about current technologies and applications, and gives you a basic idea of currently used programming languages. But BCA course will not provide you with an in-depth conceptual understanding. B.Sc. Computer Science is more concept-oriented. This course will not give much importance to current technologies and applications. Candidates who studied Arts, Commerce or Science can join for BCA since it is application-oriented. But in order to study B.Sc. Computer Science, an intermediate Certificate with mathematics is mandatory. You

    To pursue BCA you can join from any stream (Science, Commerce, and Arts). But in order to study B.Sc. Computer Science you'll need a solid background in mathematics. B.Sc. Computer Science is more concept-oriented which will teach you the core concept of computer Science. And BCA is an application-oriented course that teaches current technologies & applications and gives you a basic idea of currently used various programming languages but learning new technologies or working on core computing is quite difficult. B.Sc. Computer Science deals mainly with the programming language, algorithms, Computer Architecture and organisation, Da

    BCA is better option. All the three courses have great opportunities. The opportunities are not so much within the type of degree, as it is within the individual who has the degree. Opportunities are always there. It is up to you to take advantage of them through creative and critical thinking, assertiveness, perseverance, commitment, positive attitude, and the ability to think through long-term benefits.

    Hi,
    B.Sc IT:
    It is a degree course of 3 years. It can be considered as a simple academic course. This course mainly deals with soft computing and placing of mathematical and theoretical concepts. Moreover, students of B.Sc. Information technology learns about programming language, algorithms, Computer Architecture and organisation, Data Algorithms, Data Structures and dealing with new techniques and boosting them to invent new ones. Here, the student also learns details about hardware components of the computer and apart from that also about Database Management Systems, C Programming, Computer Fundamentals, UNIX and Java Programming etc

    BCA or B.Sc in computer Science would be a good choice according to the scope but it still depends on your interest of study.

    It really doesn't matter as the syllabus for both would be more or less same. Only caution to be taken is that it should be a regular course from a UGC recognised university.
