Computer Science Eligibility

Students who want to take master's in Computer Science in USA must have UG degree from recognised university in specializations such as Computer Science, IT, Software Engineering, or relevant fields such as Mathematics and Engineering. Along with this, students must submit the following paperwork to get admission:

• Grade Point Average of 3.0 out of 4.0 scale or more 
• Standardised Test Scores
• English language requirements
• Work experience
• Letter of recommendations
• Programming and Math skills

Yes, you are absolutely eligible for an engineering programme in computer science.

As 50 to 70 percent minimum marks are required for admission to all B.Tech computer Science programs.

You can further go for government exams like state level exams and specially JEE (Joint Entrance Exam) Mains conducted by NTA (National Testing Agency) to get a government college or a private college at affordable fees structure.

Yes, The CSIR NET exam accepts candidates who obtained their Master's degree in Mathematics with Computer Science as it considers both M.Sc. education and equivalent qualifications for eligibility. 

Educational Qualification:

• A Master's degree in Mathematics/Applied Mathematics/Statistics/Computer Science or a related field is required.
• Since your degree includes Mathematics, you are eligible.

As a commerce student wanting to transition into Computer Science courses, you have the following options.

You can do a BSc Computer Science. Note that some universities require you to have a maths background for that.

You can go for BCA. Again, make sure you meet the college requirements, as some may require you to have Computer Science and Maths in class 12.

Though engineering courses accept admissions from a science background only. Sometimes after a BCA/BSc, you may be eligible for lateral entry into the second year of a BTech. This totally depends on the flexibility of the college guidelines.
