What is ENGINEERS EUROPE EEED?

ENGINEERS EUROPE maintains an European Engineering Education Database (previously INDEX) listing the institutions of engineering higher education in European countries represented within ENGINEERS EUROPE, and their engineering programmes, which are all recognized by ENGINEERS EUROPE as fulfilling the mandatory education requirements for the EUR ING Certificate.

The ENGINEERS EUROPE European Engineering Education Database (EEED) is regularly updated and maintained by the ENGINEERS EUROPE Secretariat. HEIs and programs are submitted for inclusion in the ENGINEERS EUROPE EEED by the respective National Member, subject to approval by the EMC (European Monitoring Committee).

Since February 2007, the EMC accepts the programmes accredited by agencies authorized to grant the EUR-ACE label.  Follow this link to have the lists of EUR-ACE accredited programmes.

The ENGINEERS EUROPE EEED comprises:

  • Short description of the engineering education as part of each national educational system.
  • Names of accepted institutions of engineering higher education and programmes (names of HEIs in the national language and in English, names of programmes only in a ENGINEERS EUROPE language (EN, FR, DE).
  • Academic title in the national language, full and abbreviated.
  • Nominal duration of study expressed in U (years of university study) and "ECTS".

Being approved by all ENGINEERS EUROPE National Members, the ENGINEERS EUROPE EEED is an authoritative source of information about national engineering education systems and educational institutions. The EEED is used by major European industries in aeronautics, automobile, power, information technologies, ... For cross checking engineers applications.

In case a EUR ING candidate wants to know, before applying, if the school she/he graduated from as well as the course she/he followed to achieve her/his degree is recognised by ENGINEERS EUROPE, she/he may ask this question to the relevant National Monitoring Committee directly.
