Delhi Technological University
The Delhi Technological University (Erstwhile Delhi College of Engineering) has a glorious past of more than 74 years and has been widely acclaimed for its excellence in education, research and training. A special emphasis is laid on total personality development along with the quality education and technical training of the students. Delhi Technological University is fully networked with industry, as well as with academic/scientific community. It has active collaborations with leading universities and industries in India and abroad. Delhi Technological University is the alma mater of highly distinguished world class engineers and technologists, which include the father of Pentium Chip Vinod Dham, Promod Haque, the world's known venture capitalist, Raj Soin, the avionics wizards of US and a top ranking techno entrepreneur of Ohio, Durgadas Agrawal, the renowned techno-entrepreneur of Houston, to name a few.
Delhi Technological University has kept the quality of education and research as its main focus of academic and professional activities and this has earned a high reputation in the country and abroad as is evident from DTU figuring several times among the top ten engineering institutions in the country along with the IITs. Alumni, Staff, students and supporters take pride in having contributed to the Delhi Technological University reputation as India's flagship, research-led university, known for the excellence of its teaching, research, and service to its local, national and international communities. Our challenge for the future is to build on this strong base to establish ourselves firmly among the world's leading universities. I hope our outstanding students will support us in this endeavour and in turn emerge themselves, as pioneers of an exemplary society.
