BCA · MCA
From your subjects to a software job.
BCA and MCA students are hired on the same rounds as computer science graduates — aptitude, a language, DSA, SQL, a project you can explain, and the interview. Here is that path, in order, with Aria to help at every step.
Your placement path
Step 1
Aptitude
Every campus drive starts with it — quantitative, reasoning, verbal.
Step 2
One language, properly
Java (most campus drives) or Python — from basics to OOP, with Aria when you are stuck.
Step 3
Data structures and algorithms
Learn each structure, then practise the problems that actually get asked, pattern by pattern.
Step 4
DBMS and SQL
Queries on real schemas — a written round in most service-company tests.
Step 5
Operating systems and networks
The CS fundamentals every technical interview checks.
Step 6
Web development and a project
HTML to React and a backend — then one project you built and can explain.
Step 7
Resume and interviews
An ATS-checked resume, then mock and coding interviews with Aria.
