The foundation stone of New Campus of DCE was laid by the then Hon'ble Vice President Dr. Shankar Dayal Sharma on May 23, 1989 . The capacity utilization of the infrastructure, at the college, is indeed highly satisfying, especially that the college functions now at the new campus of DCE (163.9 acre land) right from 9.00 a.m. in the morning to right up to 9 p.m. in the evening on all working days. Part-time B.Tech. Degree Programs to the practicing engineers of the National Capital Region are run in the evening between 6 to 9 p.m.

The beginning of last decade of century brought very dynamic and energetic Principal Prof. P.B. Sharma to lead the college community. Introduction of CEE Entrance test, new examination policy and curriculum innovation were some of the exemplary work carried out in this period. The college became highly vibrant and dynamic with enormous activity in all the facet of academic and extracurricular. The college organized more than 32 national level symposia and seminars, 6 chapters of International societies were opened to have meaningful interaction and participation not only from India but from abroad also. "Emerging Trends in Technical Education" organized in 1992 gave an impetus to rethink about the technical education patterns in India. Management of environment were on the top of the agenda and polymer science & technology drawn the attention of all the educational administrators during 1996.

B.E. degree level courses were started in Polymer Science & Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering in 1998. Information technology played a vital role during this era and the beginning of new millennium witnessed the introduction of B.E. in Information Technology in 2002. B.E. in Bio Technology was introduced from the academic session 2004-2005. A seminar on sport engineering in 2004 is the beginning to start this course in near future.
