Information Technology is the powerful combination of computer and telecommunication technologies to store, analyse, retrieve and transmit textual, numeric, graphic, audio and video data at astounding speeds.
With a decidedly greater impact on mankind than the agricultural and Industrial Revolutions, the Information Technology Revolution currently sweeping the globe, has dramatically improved the efficiency and effectiveness of the functioning of Business, Industry, Government, Healthcare, Transportation, Education and Entertainment Services.

No wonder, a career in software is right on top in the aspirational space of ambitious Indian youth drawn by the excitement of a 21st century career. Next to graduates with B.E, B.Tech and M.Tech qualifications, precious opportunities in this sunrise industry are reserved for youngsters with an MCA qualification.

Master of Computer Applications – Specialization in Software Engineering

Master of Computer Applications – Specialization in Software Engineering is a three year postgraduate program of the School of Information Technology. Students for this prestigious course are selected through an All India level entrance exam conducted by the university. The design and structure of the course sets it apart from other courses offered at the same level. The curriculum reflects the School’s philosophy of promoting academic excellence with a strong orientation towards the trends prevalent in the industry. Apart from the core papers in Operating Systems, Computer Networks, Algorithms etc., the students are offered a wide range of electives including Fuzzy Logic, TCP/IP, Neural Networks, Digital Signal Processing etc. This allows the students to strengthen their fundamentals and to consider avenues in emerging field of computer science at the same time. The three papers in Software Engineering namely Project Planning, Verification & Validation, Quality Assurance along with the lab excercises using latest software engineering tools, accentuate the finer methodologies practiced in the Industry. Most importantly, an additional semester is dedicated to live projects along with customary last semester  training aggregating to more ‘real’ project experience.
