honest review by MCA graduate

Eligibility criteria for MCA- 50% or higher in graduation (BCA/BSC IT) from any recognised University. there is no entrance exam in JU. For any admission related queries, you can visit the college's official website or can visit the college's admission cell.

I opted for MCA data science specialization because the demand for skilled Data scientists and Analysts is booming and there are lots of good career opportunities in this field. Course curriculum get's updated every year to add more relevant subjects and topics that are in demand like Salesforce, Big Data etc. Teachers are well qualified and experts in their respective subjects, they teach every concept with real life examples and are helpful in resolving doubts related to their subjects. Generally, whiteboards are used and projectors are used when necessary. There are 3 exams in one semester two in sem and one end SEM exam, Exam level isn't difficult if you have understood the concepts and practised some questions. You need 40% marks overall to pass the Exam.

from last year MCA batch and 100% got internships in their last semester more than 60% converted the internships into full-time jobs with good stipends(5-15k). general internship roles that are offered- Digital marketer Seo optimization application developer Web developer Database administrator etc. It's mandatory for all students to complete an internship in order to complete the degree.

Students became eligible for Interviews from 2nd last semester. More than 50% of students get placed in good companies from last year MCA batch, and 100% got internships in their last semester more than 60% converted the internships into full time jobs with good stipends. Job roles that are offered are - Software developer, Quality analyst Full-stack developer Database administrator System analyst Junior Data Scientist etc.

Fees for general MCA= 50k/sem+10k one time alumni fee. MCA specialization= 60k/sem+10k one time alumni fee. There's no scholarship for MCA but you get a discount from 10-20% while paying both semester fees at once.

Mini tech fests happen once every two or three months. Students who perform well are awarded cash prizes, certificates and other extra perks. In terms of sports Football, Cricket, volleyball and chess are available. Inter college tournaments happen once every 5/6 months. Students and faculty members run a Social helping group called Zarurat to help poor homeless kids. The library has limited books with old editions. In the terms of class and lab infrastructure, unfortunately, the college isn't able to provide good facilities according to the fees they take from us. Classes and labs are non Air conditioned, not all classes have projectors. Projectors are outdated and cheap quality not even visible from the last benches. Lab PC's are too old to work and have faulty keyboards and mouse oftentimes.
