Focussing on such competition - both national and global levels, the Technology Information, Forecasting and Assesment Council(TIFAC) of the Department of Science and Technology(DST) launched Mission REACH (Relevence and Excellence in ACHieving new heights in educational institutions) in the year 2000 - a mission embedded in its technology vision 2020. TIFAC is addressing the vision through an objetive - driven approach by nurturing quality manpower in areas of high relevance to the indian industry.

Under the Mission REACH, institutions are being targeted for creating Centers of Relevance & Excellence (COREs). These TIFAC-COREs are mandated for excelling in focused areas. Through these centers, technology generation and skill up gradation of workforce is to be done on a continuous basis.

Delhi College Of Engineering is one of the such centers in the area of Fiber Optics and Optical Communications The activities of this TIFAC-CORE at DTU is supported by TIFAC/DST, Govt. of NCT of Delhi and partners from industries under Mission REACH Program, Technology Vision - 2020, Govt. of India.
