I recently completed my BCA and I’m planning to do an online MCA. I’m also interested in getting into cybersecurity.

Is BCA enough to build a career in cybersecurity, or does an MCA give any real advantage when applying for security roles? Also, do recruiters in cybersecurity prefer BTech students over BCA/MCA like in some other IT domains, or do skills and hands-on experience matter more?

Would appreciate advice from people already working in cybersecurity.

I completed my BCA with decent marks but still haven’t got a job. I’ve applied for many internships but keep getting rejected.

I know I need to improve my skills, build good projects and then apply. If I self-study, it might take around 4–5 months, but I can do it from home. I’m just worried about having a gap and companies asking for internship experience.

So I’m considering 3 options:

- Self-study: 4–5 months of learning + projects, then apply.

- Training + internship: 6–7 months, around ₹1 lakh including staying away from home. Mainly considering this so I don’t waste a year and can get some experience.

- MCA: Admissions are closing this month. Around ₹2 lakh+ and 2 years, but I can only get a Tier-2 college with my rank.

Is MCA worth 2 years, or should I start trying to get a job now? And is spending ₹1 lakh on a training/internship program actually worth it?

What would you do in my situation? Also, how do I get that first internship when companies already ask for experience?

Mits ill MCA engane und ? Clg life ? Placements?

I'm planning to join the MCA program at PSG College of Technology, Coimbatore and had a few questions. I'd really appreciate it if any current students or alumni could help.

What is the current tuition fee for MCA (Aided/Self-Supporting)?

Is there any donation/capitation fee for management quota? If yes, approximately how much?

What are the boys' and girls' hostel fees per year, including mess?

How are the hostel rooms and food?

Are there any other charges that I should be aware of apart from tuition and hostel fees?

Thanks in advance for your help!
