The Institution of Engineers (India) [IEI] is the premier professional body of engineers established in 1920 and incorporated by Royal Charter in 1935 to promote and advance the art, science and practice of engineering and technology. It is the largest multidisciplinary body of engineers encompassing 15 (fifteen) engineering disciplines with a membership of more than 8.2 lakhs serving the nation for more than 9 decades.
IEI being recognised as Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation by the Ministry of Science & Technology, Govt. of India, besides conducting its own research provides Grant-in-Aid to UG/PG/ PhD students of Engineering Institutes & Universities. .
