Postgraduate diploma is a qualification at the same level of study as Masters degrees, but they're shorter and you don't have to write a dissertation. That means they're more advanced than undergraduate Bachelors degrees. It covers all the important subjects of your specialization / areas but it does not include any thesis/research of your specialization . Students opt for this course to enhance their knowledge in particular areas and to fulfill industries/companies requirements.

While Masters degree duration is of 2 years. It is advanced knowledge program covers all important concepts, theoretical, practical application as well as research/thesis in your area of specialization. It ensures better job opportunities and career options .
