Delhi Technological University (DTU), formerly known as the Delhi College of Engineering (DCE), is a public engineering university located in New Delhi, India.It is one of the oldest Engineering Institutions of India and Delhi's first engineering college.It was established in 1941 as Delhi Polytechnic and was under the control of the Government of India. The college has been under the government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi since 1963 and was affiliated with the University of Delhi from 1952 to 2009. In 2009, the college was given state university status, thus changing its name to Delhi Technological University. Till the year 2009, DCE shared its admission procedure and syllabus for various B.E courses with their other branch known as Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology, formerly DIT, which were prescribed by Faculty of Technology, University of Delhi. [2]
It offers courses towards Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech), Master of Technology (M.Tech), Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) and Master of Business Administration (M.B.A) and contains fourteen academic departments with a strong emphasis on scientific and technological education and research. From 2017, the university also offers courses like Bachelor of Business Administration and B.A. in Economics.
History
Delhi Polytechnic
The seeds of Delhi Polytechnic were sowed by the Wood and Abott Committee of 1938. It was established as Delhi Polytechnic in 1941. The technical school was created to cater to the demands of Indian industries. At that time, Delhi Polytechnic offered courses in Arts, Architecture, Commerce, Engineering, Applied Science and Textiles. Walter William Wood, the father of technical education in India, became the founder Principal of Delhi Polytechnic.
The National Diploma awarded by Delhi Polytechnic was considered an equivalent to the B.E. Degree by the then UPSC. B.E. degrees in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering and Textile Engineering were awarded to the students under Faculty of Technology, University of Delhi since 1952. A B.E. degree in Civil Engineering was introduced in 1955. In addition to merit of qualifying examination, test and/or interview were held for the selection of candidates for admission.
Delhi College of Engineering
Up till 1962, the college was under the direct control of Ministry of Education, Government of India. Since 1963, Delhi Polytechnic was taken over by the then Delhi Administration and Chief Commissioner Delhi was the ex-officio Chairman of the College. It became a Union Territory College and 75% of seats were reserved for the candidates who passed their qualifying examination from a school situated in the Union Territory of Delhi. In 1963, Department of Arts became College of Arts and Department of Commerce & Business Administration was converted to several institutes of Commerce & Secretarial Practices. Fragmentation of Delhi Polytechnic ultimately left behind an engineering institute alone. In 1962, the college was affiliated with University of Delhi. In 1965, the Delhi Polytechnic was renamed as Delhi College of Engineering and became the first engineering college of Delhi.
B.E. degree course in Production & Industrial Engineering was started in 1988 while B.E. degree course in Computer Engineering was started in 1989. B.E. degree level courses were started in Polymer Science & Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering in 1998. Information technology played a vital role during this era and the beginning of new millennium witnessed the introduction of B.E. in Information Technology in 2002. B.E. in Bio Technology was introduced from the academic session 2004-2005.[3]
The Department of Architecture of the Delhi College of Engineering became the School of Planning and Architecture, now a Deemed University and Institution of National importance. The Department of Arts and Sculpture became College of Arts and the Departments of Chemical Technology and Textile Technology were shifted out en-block to mark beginning of the IIT Delhi at its new campus at Hauz Khas. The Department of Commerce was later abolished and the Faculty of Management Studies of the University of Delhi was established by Prof. A. Das Gupta, of DCE. Delhi Administration established Delhi Institute of Technology (Presently Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology) in 1985 and the new college was established under the patronage of Delhi College of Engineering. DCE shared its campus with NSIT at Kashmiri Gate campus, although later, NSIT was shifted to Dwarka as a follow-up of the Wood and Abott Committee of 1938. Delhi College of Engineering is thus the mother institution of a number of national institutes including Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology, School of Planning and Architecture, Delhi, College of Art, Delhi and Faculty of Management Studies.[4]
Delhi Technological University
In July 2009, Delhi College of Engineering was upgraded to a state university and renamed Delhi Technological University, through the Delhi Technological University Bill, 2009.[5] P. B. Sharma was nominated as the university's first Vice Chancellor.[6] The move was met with student protests over the erosion of the DCE brand[7] which culminated to a face-off in March 2010, with the students boycotting the mid-semester exams,[8] and demanding reconsideration of the change and replacement of the VC.[9] However, the Chief Minister of Delhi, Sheila Dikshit informed the students that the change will not be reconsidered,[10] and by the end of March the protest dwindled down, with the students taking their exams.[11] In April 2010 Times City reported that the government will be willing to change the name to "DCE Technological University" (DCE TU),[12] however, as of June 2018[update] the university name remains unchanged till date.
Campuses
Delhi Technological University (Delhi College of Engineering) operated from the Kashmiri Gate campus in the heart of Old Delhi until 1989, when construction began at the New Campus at Bawana Road in May. Moving of operations from Kashmiri Gate to the new 164 acres campus at Bawana Road began in 1995, and the new campus formally started classes for all four years of study starting 1999.
The new lush green campus is well connected by road.[13] Facilities include a library, a computer center, a sports complex, eight boys' hostels, six girls' hostels, and a married couples' hostel. The campus has residential facilities for faculty and staff. The campus has an auditorium and an open-air theater.
DTU has opened up a campus in Vivek Vihar, East Delhi named "University School of Management and entrepreneurship (USME)" in 2017. The new campus offers management courses for graduation and post graduation. Currently, the USME, east campus of DTU offers courses in MBA, MBA business analytics, BBA, and BA in Economics. USME offers 60 seats for MBA students and 30 seats for MBA business analytics program. Admission to MBA is decided by Cat exam and further by rigorous group discussion and personal interview. Moreover, there are 120 seats for BBA and BA(hons) Economics each. The admission to the courses is Merit Based.
Admissions
The admission towards a full-time Bachelor of Engineering degree in DTU is through the Joint Admission Counselling Delhi (JAC-Delhi) process, together with Indira Gandhi Delhi Technological University for Women, Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology Delhi and Netaji Subhash University of Technology.[14] For admission through JAC Delhi,85% seats are reserved for students passing their class 12th from Delhi.Admission to foreign students is through the Direct Admission of Students Abroad (DASA) scheme.[15] Admission to the B.Tech. (Lateral Entry) Programme is based on marks secured by the candidates in the State Diploma Examination.[16] Admissions to the evening studies programme is based on a Common Entrance Examination.[17]
Admission towards a postgraduate degree is based on performance in the Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) qualifying exam. If two or more candidates have the same GATE score, then percentage in qualifying undergraduate course shall decide the merit. No separate test or interview is conducted by the university.[18] However, for the NRIs, Foreign Nationals and Persons of Indian Origin (PIOs) the admission is made on the basis of merit/score in Graduate Record Examination (GRE).[19] The medium of instruction for all the courses at the university is English.
Admissions to the B.Des program are taken on the basis of UCEED score.
Candidates interested in taking admissions in M.Tech and Ph.D. courses can apply for the same online.[20].
Admissions in MBA program are based on Common Admission Test (CAT) exam, followed by a group discussion and an interview.
