MCA Papers : MCA from University College of Engineering Burla

By admin on April 25th, 2008

The MCA program prepares students to take up positions as system analysts, systems designers, Programmers and managers in any field related to information technology. The program, therefore, aims at imparting comprehensive knowledge with equal emphasis on theory and practice. The MCA students are encouraged to spend a full semester working in the industry in the institute giving them insight into the workings of the IT world. However, the course curriculum will have enough flexibility to enable a student to undertake advance studies in computer science later on.

Course structure

The course is to be completed in 6 semesters. The first semester will comprise mostly of common subjects needed to build a base for the subjects to follow in pursuance of the objectives of the course. The 2nd to 5th semesters will be mostly divided into core subjects and elective, which offer the student a choice to build expertise in some fields based on personal choice. The last semester will be devoted to project work testing the students application in the fields studied so far and provide valuable experience before stepping into the professional world of information technology.
