This is another common question I received from the regular visitors. Most of them asked me about how to do M.Tech after MCA. I will try to answer this question and how and where to apply for M.Tech if you could not qualify the GATE exam.
First lets me take a direct you to an eligibility condition for appearing to GATE exam. In condition (b) if it mentioned that “Master degree holders in any branch of Science/ Mathematics/ Statistics/ Computer Applications or equivalent and those who are in the final or pre-final year of such programmes.” are eligible to write GATE exams.
If you qualify and have competitive scores you can apply for all IITs and most of the NITs. IITs particularly less bother about earlier degrees, and try to take students with good understanding to subject. Only condition applies is one apply with MCA or MSc degree must have Maths and Science at BSc level.
If could not qualify the GATE exam please refer to Non GATE M.Tech admissions: Points that may help. Don’t forget to apply for IIITs as they are more flexible in M.Tech admissions in terms of earlier degree and conduct their own written tests. Central universities also conduct their own exams for M.Tech admissions. If you prepare and appear for entrance multiple exams you will definitely be able to crack one.
I am writing a post on why to do M.Tech in general, but for MCA it has a clear advantage. Though both are master degrees, M.Tech will lead to master degree in professional course and therefore lead to higher opportunities both in industry and academy. Usually, B.Tech degree is treated superior to MCA but M.Tech is superior to both the degrees. Therefore, M.Tech after MCA gives an edge over any other bachelor degree in India and also makes you equivalent to your M.Tech peers.
If you don’t have a job offer in hand and just looking for some course to do, I strongly suggest you to apply for M.Tech wherever possible. If you are pre-final year student apply for GATE exam and keep it as an option to stay away from wasting time after completing degree and thinking what to do next. Time after completing course goes fast and a year gap after degree makes you lazy and harms your chances of getting good opportunities.
It’s a Great Information about Top Bca-Mca Integrated colleges in India

Hello sir,

Why on earth do you keep studying in distance?
Bca distance,then Mca regular should have be your goal
Yes,you are eligible for the same
Get a regular college degree fast
Manage with tuitions on the side
You are eligible for non-iit institutes also
Any college,
1.ability to pay the fees
2.percentage cutoff for admission
3.entrance exam marks
4.student should come with parent for admission (ability to stand in queue and fight with other parents during admission counselling)
If you keep studying in distance,you will have to marry another person in distance only,regardless of what on you are in.
This is because jobs come and go,but only studies remain
Usually people study in distance because some one in the family are against their studies.(uncle or aunt)
If you take care of that person,arrange your fees,make it a point that you are worth it,your life will be good
Yes suru you can apply in private universities

if u want to join into the Ph.D is necessary to complete M.Tech after MCA.

MCA is equivalent to ME.
MCA with Bsc (Computer Science) background is equivalent to ME (Computer Science and Engineering).
Bsc Computer Science (3 Yrs) + MCA (3 Yrs) = 6 Yrs.
BE Computer Science (4 Yrs) + ME (2Yrs) = 6 Yrs.
MCA and ME both are equal.
Companies are giving equal priority to both MCA and ME.

IIT can approve Mtech after MCA, If any student get very good marks at get. They complected MCA. they want to admit IIT for Mtech.
I see the criteria of IIT for Mtech . They don’t allow Mca for Mtech.
is it right or wrong?
tiyasa banerjee ,narender,subhashis please note can you do M.Tech after BCA ??? no can do after B.E/B.Tech or MCA ,Think over 🙂
tiyasa banerjee ,narender,subhashis hi all what was written above Usually, B.Tech degree is treated superior to MCA ,the meaning was in coporate world B.E/B.Tech is taken equal to MCA ,though MCA is master’s degree it is not taken higher than B.E/B.Tech ,only M.S/M.Tech is considered next level of B.E/B.Tech
MCA not equal to M.E/M.Tech/M.S like it or not

hello sir, my name is raman and my qualification is MCA and i m planning to take addmission for M.Tech. Plz tell wether i m elgible to take addmission for M.Tech
I,highly appriciate to subhasis’s comment for saying that btech is not superior than mca.
i am a 1st year mca student of wbut.having bcom bechelor degree.am i elegible for gate(mtech)exam.if not what is the procedure for GATE exam?
I am pursuing BBA (2nd year). If I go for MCA after my BBA, would I be eligible to write GATE (CS) after MCA? I think you have faced the same type of situation but I need your suggestion as you have some more experience than me.
Yes you are eligible for the GATE exam. at your final year stage of your M.C.A degree you can enlist your name for this exam. All the best..
I don’t know why u guys are thinking like this MCA is a post graduation where as b.tech is a graduation so scope of the MCA student is more than to a grauate student .
hi its over i think
who said b.tech is superior to mca….
It is a complete miss conception and lack of information. The people who thought b.tech is superior to mca should check out the course structure of mca, and also it is a masters degree.
@subhashis
i totally agree with you, i am doing bca and my friend is doing b.tech, till now both our courses are same,whatever is there for him is there for me but the only difference is the 1 year difference, bca 3 years while b.tech being 4 year as a result a fresh graduate from bca gets hardly 15k-17k where as b.tech graduates get 25k+ after all bca is a management course where as b.tech is a dedicated engineering course
can be a student aplicable for gate exam with open university(IGNOU)
mca degree ?
I don’t know anything about Gate.But i want all the details regarding the exam&how to apply for the exam& how to prepare,where to take the coaching.pls give me details.now i am doing MCA final Year.I am eligible for the Gate or Not?
