About Department
The department of Computer Applications (MCA) was established during 1984-85 when computer science education was in its infancy in India. The department offers a Masters in Computer Applications programme with an autonomous curriculum for aspiring students in the field of applied computer science and technologies. The MCA programme was started with an initial intake of 30 and later enhanced to 60. The duration of the MCA programme was 3 years until AY 2019-20 and it is reduced to 2 years with effect from AY 2020-21 with an intake of 60. The MCA programme got accredited for 5 years from 2019 to 2024 by NBA. It is a prestigious quality recognition awarded by National board of accreditation for MCA programme.The curriculum includes Internships, Projects, Mini-projects, Soft Skills, Industry visits, Emerging technologies like Machine Learning, IoT, Big Data, Block Chain, Agile methodologies, etc. The department has collaborations with IIT Bombay and IIT Kharagpur to implement MHRD project “NMEICT”, IIT Madras (NPTEL), Enterprise Atlas, and Altimertik.
The department has state-of-the-art Computing Lab with more than 100 modern PCs and an exclusive department library with over 6500 books and access to various journals & conference proceedings. In addition, the department has developed Innovation Cluster Lab (ICL) supported by Industry Experts and Data Analytics and Research Lab (DAR) to promote lifelong learning, innovation and research.
