Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into
fragments by narrow domestic walls;
where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its
way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
where the mind is led by thee into ever widening
thought and action- into that heaven of freedom,
My Father, let my country awake.
Rabindranath Tagore
Bachelor of Computer Applications - BCA
Fast growing information technology and communication systems have become critical
components of almost every company's strategic plan. Companies which want to take advantage
of the new information technologies and communication systems require expert Professionals,
who can apply computer science principles to solve problems produced by the interface between
business and technology. BCA is an undergraduate program where students are exposed to
various areas of computer applications including the latest developments keeping pace with the
industry.
Objectives:
The course aims at realizing the following student objectives :
- To demonstrate a sound knowledge in key areas of computer science or industrial
computing.
- To demonstrate a substantial understanding of concepts in key areas of computer
science.
- To carry out the required analysis and synthesis involved in computer systems,
information systems and computer applications.
- To demonstrate professional competence in developing software and in its design and
implementation.
- To develop sound practical skills to enable them to addressing problems which arise
from computer systems and applications.
Based on communication techniques, Information Technology is growing very rapidly. The
increasing applications of computers in almost all areas of human endeavor have led to a vibrant
industry with concurrent rapid change in technology. The major emphasis in computer
application is given on designing information systems for various organizations such as banks,
insurance companies, hotels, factories, educational institutes and hospitals. The main objectives
of the students will be to develop application software in diverse areas where computers are
widely used. The students shall be provided with a sound background in computing, business
functions and mathematics relevant to information Technology.
