IGNOU MCA syllabus consists of total 31 courses and it becomes very difficult to remember their codes and names. Therefore, I have posted the latest new syllabus of IGNOU MCA Program in the table below. Presently, only 3 elective courses are on offer and student should select all of them.
IGNOU MCA syllabus & MCA Program Structure
IGNOU MCA program has been divided into two semesters per year (January-June and July-December). Consequently, there will be two examinations every year - one in the month of June for the January to June semester courses and the other in December for the July to December semester courses. The students are at liberty to appear for any of the examinations conducted by the University during the year subject to completing the minimum time frame and other formalities prescribed for the program.
