 Introduction to Bachelor of Computer Applications

Bachelor of Computer Application is a three years undergraduate programme that has been designed
meticulously to meet the requirements of dynamic I.T. industry. This programme aims at fostering concepts
of Information technology and business technology in students and equip them with the required technical,
logical, problem solving and soft skills, which prepare them for the corporate world. It also focuses on
inculcating effective communication skills which a software professional must have.

No education is complete without incorporating social and moral values. This programme takes care of this
aspect as well. The core courses of the program are supplemented by electives so that students can tailor
the program according to their interest. State of art computer laboratories, in the campus, help students to
practically implement the concepts learned. Qualified and experienced faculty members guide students in
their project work. As we all know degrees in Computer Application lead to rewarding and lucrative
careers, excellent placement and incubation assistance is provided.

2 Security and disaster training is identified as a top Information Technology (IT)

required skill that needs to be taught in Information Systems (IS) curriculums.
Accordingly, information security and privacy have become core concepts in
information system education. Providing IT security on a shoestring budget is
always difficult and many small universities are challenged with balancing cost and
effectiveness. Many colleges and universities have additional security challenges,
such as relaxed working environments, less formalized policies and procedures, and
employees that “wear many hats.” Therefore, it is not surprising to note that the
majority of data breaches since 2005 occur in educational settings. So, it is
imperative that this segment (i.e., educational settings) be represented in classroom
discussions to prepare future employees.

Testing the Mean Lifetime of Fluorescent Light Bulbs

A company manufactures fluorescent light bulbs and claims that the mean lifetime of
their bulbs is 1600 hours. However, there are concerns about the actual mean lifetime
being less than the claimed value. As a data analyst, you have been tasked with
conducting a hypothesis test to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to
support the claim that the mean lifetime of the company's bulbs is indeed 1600 hours.
A sample of 400 fluorescent light bulbs produced by the company has been selected
for analysis. The sample has a mean lifetime of 1570 hours with a standard deviation
of 150 hours.

Analyzing Customer Satisfaction Levels in a Restaurant Chain

A restaurant chain wants to assess the satisfaction levels of its customers across
different locations. They have collected data on customer feedback regarding their
dining experience, categorized into three satisfaction levels: "Satisfied," "Neutral,"
and "Dissatisfied." The restaurant chain aims to determine if there is a significant
difference in customer satisfaction levels among its various locations. As a data
analyst, you are tasked with conducting a Chi-square test to analyze the data and
provide insights to the management.
The dataset consists of customer feedback collected from five different restaurant
locations. For each location, the number of customers falling into each satisfaction
category (Satisfied, Neutral, Dissatisfied) is recorded.

2 Web development is the same as society. Just like we require a plan, society permit
and license from the city , web development also requires documents, appropriate
server , designing and a programming language. Since the standards of web designing
are always increasing and so is the complexity of the technology required,
frameworks have now become a crucial part of developing websites or web
applications. It is absolutely unreasonable to reinvent the wheel, thus for designing
rich and attractive websites , it is very much sensible to use frameworks endorsed by
developers all over the world.Django,Angular, Spring, React, Vue, Express are some
of the well- known web development frameworks.
