JNU placements for MCA are good. Some of the major recruiters for MCA are Google, Microsoft, Oracle, Adobe, etc. Students usually receive an average CTC of around INR 4-5 LPA. While the highest CTC goes up to INR 9-11 LPA. 

But JNU is a research-oriented university. If you want excellent placement in the technical field, it will be better to join the top IIT or NIT. You will get better technological exposure at these institutes.

You can’t take the coursework lightly, even if it is a distance learning course.

In 2011, a Placement Coordination Cell (PCC) was established in BHU to take full responsibility for placements of the entire university (except IIT/IMS).

This body has improved the placement drives at BHU to a large extent. BHU is now visited by reputed firms for recruitment.

As far as CTC is concerned, nearly 18% to 20% of students were placed this year. The highest salary was 4.5 LPA. The lowest salary was 3.5 LPA and the average salary was 4.2 LPA.

In US, Indian software engineers earn around $60k-$80k in entry-level jobs. After 3-5 years of work experience, the salary amount becomes $90k-$130k. For software engineering professionals with around 5-10 years of experience, the salary package is around $130-$200k. 

Jobs in the Software industry have little to do with the university you graduated from. The international recruiters look for skills. If you have industry-relevant skills, you will receive good placement opportunities. After doing an MCA you can get jobs in US, if you fulfill the skill requirement.

The average package is between 5-7 lacs. In 2017, Amazon offered the highest package of 16 lacs, while many companies offered the lowest package of 4.5 lacs. As a result, if you are an average student, you will have plenty of opportunities to demonstrate your worth.

DU MCA has 46 seats in total, and classes are held in the department itself. When compared to the rest of Delhi University, only the North campus provides it.

Axis Bank, Deloitte, ICICI, Infosys, LG Electronics, Nestle, Shopclues.Com, Tata Power, and TCS are among the hiring firms.

One of my cousins completed an MCA from IGNOU while doing a job. She shared her experience with me. I have summarised it in points for better understanding:

  • The Degree Certificate of IGNOU MCA will enable you to appear for an interview 

  • There are regular classes on weekends. But these classes are only on paper so you can skip them.

  • Students will have to approach self-study only

  • Projects are only formalities and have no real value

  • Institutes that run the MCA IGNOU program offer no help when it comes to getting a job.

  • There is no value of IGNOU MCA in Infosys, TCS, Wipro, etc

Apart from this various advertisements in newspapers specifically mention that IGNOU candidates will not be able to apply. So I will not recommend that you complete an MCA from IGNOU.

The MCA course in general is a very demanding subject in the IT industry. You need to keep yourself updated with the latest trends in the industry to match proper excellence.

  • In Sanskriti University reputed companies like Infosys, TCS, HCL, Deloitte, etc. frequently visit the campus during placements. 
  • They usually offer students with an average salary package of 4.5-5 LPA. 
  • This also increases to 8-10 LPA depending on the student’s overall academic performance.
  • They have a specific cell for training and placement which helps students to gain proper knowledge for the interview, group discussion, communication and analytical skills, etc. 
  • Students mastering these skills have a better chance to secure a job offer. 
  • Sanskrit University has a 95% placement every year. 
  • Their faculty is highly experienced and will give you the required guidance for doing your best in the field.
  • It is very beneficial to pursue an MCA from Sanskriti University because the MCA students have a huge demand in the IT industry. 
  • They produce industry-ready professionals every year. 

Some of the top IT companies visit the campus include Oracle, TCS, Genpact, IBM, Byju's, Infosys, Wipro, and many others. Therefore it is totally worth it to pursue an MCA degree from Sanskriti University.
