History

Established as Delhi Polytechnic in 1940, the technical school was created to cater to the demands of Indian industries. At that time the Delhi Polytechnic offered courses in Arts, Architecture, Commerce, Engineering, Applied Science and Textiles. The National Diploma awarded by the Delhi Polytechnic was considered equivalent to B.E. Degree by the then UPSC. In 1962, after the administration of Delhi Polytechnic was taken over from Ministry of Education, India, to Delhi State, various departments offering courses in different disciplines separated to form institutes addressing specific areas. The Department of Arts became College of Arts and the Department of Commerce and Business Administration further divided into several institutes of Commerce and Secretarial Practices. In 1965, the Delhi Polytechnic was renamed as Delhi College of Engineering^[2] The Federal Public Service Commission or Union public service commission which is officially and popularly called as(UPSC) and also a constitutional body in India to conduct examinations for appointment to the services of the Union. ...

Subsequently, Bachelor of Engineering courses in Civil, Electrical, Electronics and Mechanical Engineering were started. Some of the major highlights in the last two decades has been the introduction of CEE Entrance test, moving of the campus to a large and sprawling 164 acres (0.7 km²) near Bawana Road in Northern Delhi, and a shift of focus of students and faculty towards research and development^[3] Bachelor of Engineering (commonly abbreviated as BE or BEng) is an undergraduate academic degree awarded to a student after three, four or five years of studying engineering at an accredited university in Australia, Canada, China, Finland, Germany, India, Ireland, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Pakistan, South Africa, the United States...
