History
The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) established an engineering college named Delhi Institute of Technology (DIT) in 1983. The institute was then affiliated to the Faculty of Technology, University of Delhi. The institute initiated PhD programs in 1989 and also formulated several PG programs, four of which were approved by the AICTE in the year 1994. The institute was renamed Netaji Subash Institute of Technology (NSIT) in honour of the Indian freedom fighter Subhas Chandra Bose in 1997. The Delhi Netaji Subhas University of Technology Act, 2017 (Delhi Act 06 of 2018) upgraded the institute under the affiliation of the Faculty of Technology, University of Delhi to a non-affiliating state university. Jai Prakash Saini became the founder vice-chancellor of Netaji Subhas University of Technology.[5]
