The Delhi government on Tuesday announced two new campuses of state-run Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT) made by integrating two existing colleges -- the Chaudhary Brahm Prakash Government Engineering College (CBPGEC) in Jaffarpur and the Ambedkar Institute of Advanced Communication, Technology and Research (AIACTR ) in Geeta Colony.

According to the Delhi government statement, although these two colleges are already registered under the department of training and technical education, they have not been performing well. Their integration into NSUT will add 360 BTech and 72 MTech seats to the university.

Education minister Manish Sisodia said both these colleges will benefit from the reputation and resources of NSUT. “It will also enable the colleges to progress in a more focussed manner, considering NSUT’s history, academic progress and partnerships with the industry. I congratulate NSUT, CBPGEC, and AIACTR on this new beginning,” he said.

While the west campus in Jaffarpur will offer courses in core engineering branches such as civil, information technology and mechanical engineering, the east campus in Geeta Colony will offer courses in electronics and communication, and computer science, the government statement said.
