I appreciate the author for this informative article on diploma courses in engineering. After completing SSC one will think that intermediate is the only way forward. But people who want to have an early settlement in their lives and people who want to get into a career early can definitely look for this diploma course. The course is for just three years and after three years you can get into a job or if you want to study you can join engineering by lateral entry process. There are many industries in India where they require more diploma technicians than engineering graduates. Many MSMEs prefer a diploma technician over a graduate engineer. This is what attracts students to this course. The course is more towards skill development. A diploma holder can operate a piece of equipment with his own hand and he can also maintain the equipment and can address the repairs, if any, in the machine. So slowly people are getting attracted to these diploma courses.
