Diplomas a cut above the rest
WHICH Diploma Programme should I pursue?” This question plagues most secondary school-leavers wishing to pursue higher education.
The MIU diploma programme not only answers this question, it also allows you to pursue a higher qualification later at your convenience.

MIU offers four diploma programmes – Business Administration and Mass Communication offered by MIU's School of Management and Business, while Civil Engineering and Mechanical Engineering are taught at the School of Science and Engineering.
MIU’s Diplomas in Civil and Mechanical Engineering are two-and-a-half year programmes that incorporate lectures, tutorials, group projects, assignments, labs, and industrial training.
