After lateral entry admission into diploma engineering course the duration will be of 2 years. You must have 12th with PCM stream to become eligible for lateral entry admission.

Hence, you will save one year through lateral entry and just 2 years of study will be needed to complete the diploma course which is usually of 3 years.

Diploma is primarily level course after matriculation. But there is provision made in eligibitity criteria of diploma for 12th with PCM & ITI completed candidates.

So, after 12th you will get admission for diploma in direct 2nd year by lateral entry. As you get admission in 2nd year, you will have to complete only 2nd & 3rd year of diploma.

Therefore the total duration of diploma after 12th is of only 2 years.

Part time diploma courses have very good demand in recent days.

The duration of the course is different for all courses. For certificate diploma course the minimum duration is 1 year while for diploma in engineering courses the minimum duration is 4 years.

As you have not mentioned the diploma course you wish to purse, we are unable to provide the information on the same.
