In 2002-2003, Maharani Lakshmi Ammanni College for Women introduced several specialized diploma programmes, parallel to its regular courses at the first-year degree (BA, BSc and BCom) level, with the objective of providing a job-winning professional edge to its students . While opening up new opportunities for challenging careers and fulfilling vocations, these programmes are also expected to lend an edge of prestige to the qualifications of the students. The programmes cover various areas that are in great demand by employers today.

The diploma programmes focus more on technical, managerial and “on-the-job” aspects than theory; they involve project work, industry and field visits, besides periodic seminars and guest lectures by eminent educators and successful entrepreneurs.

The college has a highly motivated and highly qualified faculty with good industry/practical experience, and it has a solid material resource base to realize the exclusive objectives of the diploma programmes. The programmes enjoy valuable UGC-recognition and support from leading industrial and professional bodies in terms of job-links and programme management.
