B.Tech in computer Science is a better option than BCA, because B.Tech gives you practically technical knowledge, which I what employers search for in a software engineer and also it is better than B.Sc in IT.

5 years agoHi,
Without any second thought, I would go with B.Tech (CS/IT). Placements are very good in this area but one should know that he has to work pretty hard to get a seat in B.Tech (CS/IT).
I hope it helps!
Thank you. -
In BE or B.Tech you will study about engineering along with the computer subjects but in MCA and BCA you will mostly learn about computer technologies and programming. There are several companies which only asks for engineering students whereas some companies used to hire BCA/MCA candidates mostly. So my final suggestion is if you have done 12th with PCM then go with BE or B.Tech in IT/CS otherwise opt for BCA.

But, as you want to know I would like to share my own experiences (or can say the harsh truth MCA=B.Tech in most of the IT companies). I have seen one of my colleague who has done it from DU, and now sitting in US from last 2 years. Have seen my juniors BCA pass out now perusing MCA. These days Masters degree is must, if you have done. B.Com LL.B. Or any course for that matter) who have joined 2 years back, and still cant make the amount, which I was making when I joined as a fresher (yes, I did B.Tech). So, decided and opted the appropriate course for you (because you are the one who exactly knows your own caliber). But, if you are st...more

A B.Tech candidate has an upper hand as compared to BCA and B.Sc. A company will definitely tend to hire a candidate with B.Tech degree if they have the right amount of skills than BCA and B.Sc candidate. If you are eligible for B.Tech then definitely select B.Tech over other two courses. If you couldn't satisfy the requirements for B.Tech then go for BCA or B.Sc.

Generally speaking, the best option would be B.Tech in CSE as companies look for students with a B.Tech rather than B.Sc or BCA. Most of the IITs and NITs offer only B.Tech in CSE and IT and most of the big companies visit these premier institutes for placements. So, having a B.Tech degree from one of these premier institutes is better than B.Sc and BCA.
Below are the benefits of B.Tech over B.Sc:
1. You will get more technical exposure in B.Tech as compared to B.Sc. CS. Moreover, the first year of B.Tech course comprises of basic knowledge of various engineering fields like Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Civil, Computer, Mathemat...more
