Both, degree and Diploma are types of recognition conferred on a person on the successful completion of an educational course. Major differences between a Diploma and degree are listed below:
The duration of a degree course is usually 3 to 4 years and the emphasis is on academics, whereas a Diploma course is a short term course (usually 1 to 2 years in duration) that focuses on training a person in a particular field.
An institute, a Polytechnic, or even a university can offer a Diploma course. There is no need for the institute or the university to be UGC or AICTE approved. Only a university can confer a degree. To pursue higher education, only a degree from a UGC-approved university is accepted. AICTE-approved private institutes are affiliated to UGC-approved universities. In case a person graduates from an AICTE approved private institute affiliated to a UGC approved university, he still gets the degree of the university.
A person must have successfully passed the 12th standard to pursue a Bachelors degree. One must possess a Bachelor's degree to pursue a master's degree. A person can enroll for a Diploma course even after class 10. There are Diploma courses that require the candidate to be an HSC pass-out. Diploma courses at the Masters level require the candidate to have a graduate degree. Regards.

Hi,
I am a Visual Communication student, but I do have a friend in B.Sc tourism and travel management. Rest assured, I always get jealous of him. I don't know the technical information, but I could say that the department is doing splendid. They keep going for trips and every time I find my friend bragging about his course. I could say that they are indeed learning and experiencing a lot. So on answering your question, yes. This is a great college for B.Sc in tourism and travel management. But, a word of advice. I'm writing through experience and not practical data. Yes there is proof that they went on several trips. The students always talk as if they feel fulfilled by the course. But those are just talks and I can only assume. But since this is a matter of career, I advice you to visit the college and ask some of the students from the course directly before making career decisions. Hope my answer helped.
