Our history began in 1919 as the Institution of Engineers Australia.
As we look back on our 100+ years of operation, we have grown and changed shape dramatically from those early days though some of the original values and attitudes are as strong today as they were then.
Our aim is to be the trusted voice of the engineering profession and the global home for engineering professionals recognised as leaders in shaping a sustainable world.
We are Australia’s premium professional engineering community representing and supporting over 100,000 members across all engineering disciplines.
Our support throughout engineers’ careers enables them to be the best engineers they can be so they can create better lives for Australians and people around the world.
As the voice of engineering, we represent and promote the importance and impact of the profession in creating prosperous and healthy communities.
We provide engineers with credentials, professional development, career support and progression, and external recognition to achieve fulfilling employment impacting the real world.
We also work with business, government and academia to inform and influence decision-making in engineering contributing to and having a positive impact on communities’ well-being.
