Master of Computer Applications (MCA) is a professional Master's Degree in computer science awarded in India. The course was designed to meet the growing demand for qualified professionals in the field of Information Technology. It is a postgraduate course that can be taken up after obtaining a Bachelor's Degree. The MCA programme is inclined more toward Application Development and thus has more emphasis on latest programming language and tools to develop better and faster applications. An MCA graduate can work for any IT company big or small as a system developer and various other roles such as :

MBA as a course imparts a strong theoretical foundation in business concepts, provides practical opportunities (via internships, group assignments and individual projects) to test what students learn in the class, builds hard-skills in the areas of management and leadership, polishes a range of soft-skills like communication, motivation and negotiation, opens up global opportunities for career growth, allows MBA students to start an independent business after graduating. After MBA you can expect a job as a Manager or an Analyst in Marketing, Finance, HR, Operations and other domains



Now as these two are very different streams its upto you how you see your self in future.

The choice depends on your interest.

If you're vouching for technical roles then MCA is bezt option.

If you're targeting technical cum management roles I suggest go with Mba in systems.
