No, it is not possible to pursue MBA course after completion of your three years Diploma in Civil Engineering course. To be eligible to pursue MBA course, you must have completed Bachelor's degree or equivalent course in any discipline from a recognised university and you need to appear in MBA entrance examinations like CAT, MAT, XAT, CMAT, etc. to get admission in MBA course. Since, you have not completed your Bachelor's degree course, being a Diploma holder, you are not eligible to pursue MBA course.

No, diploma candidates are not eligible for MBA course.

Those candidates who have completed graduation degree from a recognized university with above 50% marks are eligible for MBA entrance exam.

For SC/ST candidates the percentage is 45 % in graduation. There is no age limitation for the candidates. Final year student are also eligible for MBA entrance exam.

Exam pattern for MBA exam:-

1.Decision making
2.Verbal and logical ability
3.Quantitative ability and data interpretation
4.Essay & general awareness

No, it is not possible for you to join MBA (Master of Business Administration) course being a Diploma holder. The basic educational qualification required for doing MBA Course is "Graduation" or Bachelor Degree in any discipline. Apart from this criteria, candidates must have obtained minimum 55% marks in their Graduation and candidates failing which are not eligible to get admission into MBA Course. Since you have completed Diploma in Civil Engineering, I suggest you to complete B.Tech/ B.E in Civil Engineering which is a Graduate Degree. Then you are required to write any one of the MBA Entrance Exams namely Common Admission Test, Management Aptitude Test, Xavier's Aptitude Test (XAT) and more. There are many colleges which consider MAT/ CAT/ XAT score to get admission into MBA course. After securing good marks in any one of the above mentioned exams, candidates are required to go for counseling based on their mark/ score. So prepare strongly for any of the above mentioned common entrance examinations.

It is not possible to do MBA after diploma in Civil Engineering. Minimum qualification for MBA is a graduation from a recognized university.

MBA stands for Master in Business Administration which is 2 years Post graduation course.

A candidate must have passed three years degree course,in any discipline from any recognized university,securing minimum of 50% marks in aggregate.There is a 5% relaxation for SC/ST candidates.

So diploma holders are not permitted to join MBA degree course

No, now you are not eligible to join in MBA course, because, candidates who have completed their graduation in any discipline are only eligible to join in MBA course. So, as a candidate, who have completed only diploma course, you are not eligible to join in MBA course. To join MBA course, first try to complete graduation in any course like B.Tech. After the completion of graduation, you can apply for admission in MBA course.
