Are the Kolkata, Ranchi, and Raipur campuses of Amity University good for an MCA?

AB
Anumita Biswas Posted On : July 29th, 2022
M.Tech in Biochemical Engineering and Biotechnology, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur

Don’t choose Amity University for a master's degree. Amity has good campuses and infrastructure. For bachelor's, it is a decent option. But for MCA, you should consider reputed colleges under state universities or central universities. JNU, NIT, and IIT are some good options for MCA. If you need, you can take a gap year and prepare again.
