The Institution hosts the Indian
Engineering Congress annually which is organised concurrently with its Annual General
Meeting since 1987. The first Indian Engineering Congress was held in Calcutta.
The Engineering Congress is intended to broaden the scope of interaction and transfusion
of knowledge by letting in from within the country and abroad engineer-brothers
who are professional experts in their respective fields to participate and effectively
diffuse their experiences and infuse their thinking. The Indian Engineering Congress
has thrown open the threshold of knowledge to all, both members and non-members,
and has provided them with a Forum. In addition to the Congress Seminar and Sessions,
eminent engineers are honoured at an event, namely, Glimpses of Engineering Personalities.
The Institution has also instituted six memorial lectures commemorating eminent
engineers of the country, to be delivered as a part of the Indian Engineering Congress
every year. These are :
1. Sir M Vivesvaraya
Memorial Lecture (instituted in 1968) in the memory of Sir Mokshgundam Visvesvaraya,
