A programme code identifies the degree, diploma or certificate; a course code identifies one course or paper within that programme.
Programme code example
BCA_NEW is a programme code for Bachelor of Computer Applications. The official programme structure includes multiple separate course entries.
Course code example
The official BCA_NEW structure lists BCS-111 for Computer Basics and PC Software, and FEG-02 for Foundation Course in English-2.
Why codes matter
Assignment PDFs and question-paper archives are frequently arranged by course rather than programme title. Exact symbols, digits and leading zeroes can matter.
Before an exam
Prepare a spreadsheet listing registered course code, subject name, assignment status and exam-form status. Update it whenever registration changes.
Practical checklist
- Check exact programme code and study mode.
- Compare minimum duration, fees and eligibility using the relevant cycle.
- Keep official confirmation separate from third-party summaries.
What to do next
Keep the relevant course and programme codes, your own confirmation records and the current session name together. Check the dated guidance and your applicable course rules before completing any university process. Use the related guides on this website for preparation; any university-only action must be completed through the authorised service.
