ER&DCI IT took shape in the year 2001, with the MCA Programme with the motive of imparting high end training in Information Technology and other related areas through the three year MCA programme. The launch of the programme has been the result of the extensive research and surveys aimed at creating adequately trained manpower fit to be directly deployed on the job by the industry. Consequently the programme was structured with discrete differences from the regular MCA programmes offered by other institutes. The programme emphasizes significantly on the moulding of software skills with equal importance. The MCA offered by ER & DCI IT is distinct from the MCA courses run by regular academic institutions in terms of the specialized value-added training offered in advanced software technology areas. Hands on experience on live projects of the R & D laboratories of CDAC, is aimed at preparing the students to take up constructive challenges in the industry. MCA has been discontinued since 1 year back. The last batch will pass out on 2014.
