memorial lectures

Eight Memorial Lectures have been instituted by IEI in memory of the outstanding Engineers. These lectures form an important part of the Congress.

glimpses of engineering personalities

The success stories and achievements of engineering personalities will be presented at the Congress, followed by a felicitation ceremony. The Indian Engineering Congress offers a unique opportunity for budding engineers to listen to experts and veterans from industries, research institutions, and institutions of higher academic excellence as they share their experiences in tackling various complex engineering problems throughout their professional careers.

iei industry excellence award

The IEI Industry Excellence Award, instituted in 2008 by the Institution of Engineers (India), aims to recognizeand honor outstanding contributions made by Indian industries in the fields of productivity, quality, safety, and performance excellence. These benchmarks have positioned India prominently in global markets, reflecting the strength and capability of its industrial sector.

The award recognizes industry leaders who demonstrate innovative practices, engineering excellence, and strategic vision, allowing them to set examples and lead their sectors competitively and sustainably. By celebrating such excellence, the award also aims to inspire and guide other organizations toward similar achievements.

The IEI Industry Excellence Awards are presented to selected industries and organizations during the Indian Engineering Congress, underscoring their role in driving national progress through engineering innovation and leadership.

iei engineering education excellence award

For over a century, the Institution of Engineers (India) has played a pivotal role in advancing the science, practice, and profession of engineering through a wide range of impactful initiatives. In recent years, there has been a significant growth in the number of academic institutions offering degree and diploma programs in engineering and technology across India.

To encourage and promote excellence in engineering education, and to identify institutions that set benchmarks in quality, innovation, and impact, the IEI Engineering Education Excellence Award was instituted. This award aims to recognize and honor leading engineering institutions that demonstrate outstanding contributions to teaching, research, industry collaboration, and overall academic excellence.

The Engineering Education Excellence Award 2025 will be presented during the 40th Indian Engineering Congress, serving as a national platform to celebrate and promote exemplary educational practices in engineering and technology.
