Which is the better option between BCA and B.Sc (IT or CS)?

Question

Alapan Roy · Answer

B.Sc CS is good because B.Sc CS give you a various knowledge in software , networking, communication and hardware also.. BCA is only IT based.

Lakshit Bawa · Answer

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.

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, Data Algorithms, internet, and database management (covering basic areas like data structure, operating systems, and database applications) and thus, the hardware component of the computer systems. On the other hand, the BCA programme is mainly involved in applications of computers and software components (including programming languages like C+, Java, etc. ), along with knowledge in the areas of financial accounting and operational management. BCA is more of a professional course type, a more productive and favorable course for getting jobs in the corporate sector, while B.Sc. Computer Science mainly deals with soft computing and placing of mathematical and theoretical concepts and is more suitable for making careers in academic and disciplinary research.

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 have to decide which course to purse based on your interest. List of some of the Top and best private colleges in India are the following LNM Institute of Information Technology, Jaipur Vellore Institute of Technology, Vellore Manipal Institute of Technology SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai Dayanand Sagar college of engineering, Bangalore Geeta University, Panipat, RV college of engineering, Bangalore BMS college of engineering, Bangalore.

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, you can find a job as an IT support analyst, network engineer, technical sales representative, systems analyst, quality assurance analyst, etc. In light of the present industry need and your skill set, you can pick the course that best matches you and in which you will do well. Both courses have their own specific curricula.

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. Opportunities: After completing this course, one can get higher education and be a lecturer or get absorbed in various IT and software companies. You can appear in GATE to get admission to M.Tech courses after completing M.Sc. In computer Science or even directly pursue M.Tech after doing B.Sc. In IT. Some sectors, where a student of computer Science can get absorbed easily are Banks, Database Management Companies, Consultancies, Design Support Firms, E-Commerce Industry, Data Communications Companies, Order Processing, Simulations Manufacturers, Stock Exchange and in Universities Eligibility: You should have passed class 12th with minimum 50% marks and having Maths, Physics and Chemistry as their primary subject. BCA: Bachelor of computer application is also a degree course of 3 years. In this undergraduate programme one learns about 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 management of business and accountancy. So, we can say that this course acts as a boundary between both technical and business field. This course implements the ideas in both the fields and helps to develop these sectors. Opportunities: after passing this three year course, there are very good and abundant gates that open up for your career. You can apply for MCA after the completion of BCA or else work in various corporate companies such as WIPRO, TCS, etc. Where you get hired as software technique. Eligibility: At least 50% marks are required in class 12th boards to get admission in this course, but Maths has to be one of the compulsory subjects in your intermediate course.

pasha asif · Answer

According to me, BCA is better than B.Sc. Because BCA is more concerned with software technology and its applications in practical than B.Sc IT and B.Sc. CS is somehow similar to BCA.
