Does a Diploma and Degree course have same value?

While society still holds a traditional degree in higher esteem over a diploma programme, times are changing and students have more options to choose from. Despite this conventional belief, some of the reputed institutes in the country, such as the IIMs and NID, are offering diploma programmes as well. In order to acquire a higher qualification like a Master's degree, it is essential to take up a degree course at the Bachelor's level. But, as far as professional competence is concerned, whether you pursue a degree or a diploma, it doesn't make a difference. What matters is the reputation of the institute, faculty, how good the course structure is, the infrastructure and the ability of the institute to provide quality education.
