MCA

If a BCA graduate is not interested in programming, MBA will be the best career switch option. It will not only open door for vast opportunities but also provide different specialisation to choose from his or her personal traits. For example if you are good at numerical ability then you can choose Finance. If you are extrovert with good communication skills then Marketing can be a good option.

After MCA, if you like technical field, go for M.Tech. Otherwise, MBA in system or IT is a good option.

MCA is better than M.Sc.

MCA is offered at IIT Roorkee only. The admission to the course is done on the basis of an entrance exam IIT-JAM which is conducted by IITs for admission in post graduate degrees in Science subjects.

Hello Prateek,
I appreciate that you are interested in Xavier's Institute of Computer Application, Ahmedabad for bachelors in Computer Application. As far as the college feedback is concerned, its current and passed out can provide you with the best ones.

Hi,
Yes, it is a good option if you are willing to take your career in technical field and continue. MCA is a Master's degree with professional in technical skills and for IT background it is well suited.
But, if you are willing to change your career from technical to management sector and then instead MCA you can pursue MBA in IT or engineering or MBA in operations.

MCA is the sufficient qualification to start your career as IT professional. M.Tech after MCA will make you a specialist in your chosen field and you can make career as a technologist, architect or designer. You may seek admission in M.Tech if you are highly technically inclined. If you are not highly technically inclined then you may opt for job after MCA and grow into techno managerial role as team lead, PM and program manager. As M.Tech you will get only 15 to 25% additional salary over what a fresh MCA will get. In case you are planning to pursue M.Tech then target to do M.Tech from IITs or NITs after clearing GATE.

MNCs offer BCA graduates junior developer, tester or 24x7 Application support role jobs. MCA graduates are treated equal to B.Tech CS or B.Tech IT and are offered Development and Testing roles in Application Development and Maintenance projects. Excellent MCA graduates can easily grow into team lead or Business Analyst role with few years of experience. BCA graduates will take 3 to 4 years' experience to fill MCA qualified candidates roles in MNCs.
