Overview
A Bachelor of Computer Applications (BCA) is an undergraduate program focusing on computer science and applications. BCA programs include coursework in subjects such as programming, data structures, algorithms, database systems, and software engineering. The goal of a BCA program is to prepare students for careers in the field of computer science and information technology.
The BCA programme is a three-year course divided into six semesters. With effect from 2022, a student is required to complete 142 credits for the completion of the course and the award of a degree out of 134 credits.
Bachelor in Computer Application. BCA is a 3- year undergraduate degree programme that focuses on knowledge of the basics of computer application and software development. A BCA degree is considered at par with a B.Tech/BE degree in Computer Science or Information Technology. The BCA syllabus focuses on database management systems, operating systems, software engineering, computer architecture, web technology and languages such as C, C++, HTML, Java, etc. Some BCA programs may also offer specialized tracks or concentrations in areas such as data science, web development, or mobile app development.
