2 OVERVIEW THE DU GROUP HARDWARE SOFTWARE PHYSICS CONCLUSION

3 A glance at Delhi University (DU) Established in 1922, DU is the premier university of the country and is known for its high standards in teaching and research and attracts eminent scholars to its faculty. At present, there are 16 faculties, 86 academic departments and 77 colleges and 5 other recognised institutes spread all over the city, with about 3,90,000 students. DU has one of the largest number of Centres of Advanced Studies recognized by the UGC.

4 A glance at Delhi University The University has 15 libraries in addition to the libraries in the Colleges. The University Science Instrumentation Centre (USIC) has a number of sophisticated research instruments which are used by several departments of the University and by other institutions in Delhi and its neighbourhood. The University has fibre-optic networks on the North and South Campuses.
