Information Technology

Master of Science (M.Sc.) in Information Technology (IT) is a 2 years postgraduate degree program in most of universities can be done after any Bachelors degree from a recognised university with at least 50% marks in aggregate. Students after B.Sc PCM are eligible for M.Sc IT subject to meeting other requirements. They are also eligible for MCA degree.

You can pursue BCA.

USA policy changes on Outsourcing and Visa will definitely impact IT industry but opportunities for good CSE and IT engineer will not diminish. Also, we must wait for policy announcement and its details to study its impact on IT industry in a long run.

B.Tech IT is more prosperous in terms of job potential, especially in wide spread IT industry.

Currently, placements in IT industry is better in comparison to embedded systems. However, IT industry has started showing an early sign of decline because of outcry against outsourcing in the Western world. Therefore, I will recommend you that you opt for your core engineering in embedded systems.

As you belong to commerce background, you cannot pursue B.Sc IT. But, you can choose similar course such as:
1. BCA.
2. BBA (IT).

Though B.Sc. IT is treated as a science stream course, many colleges are offering admission to commerce stream students but there are some conditions and limitations though.
The student must have had mathematics and/or computer subjects during 11th and 12th commerce stream schooling. Students who satisfy this criteria may land a seat in such colleges when it comes to B.Sc. IT course.

Hello Vaishnavi,
As per my knowledge, anybody with degree in engineering can seek to get admission for MS.
