Engineering Council of India (ECI) was established in 2002 by coming together of a large number of professional organizations/institutions of engineers, to work for the advancement of engineering profession in the country. The main objectives of ECI are to work for the advancement of engineering profession in various disciplines and for enhancing the image of engineers in the society. To this end, ECI is focusing on quality and accountability of engineers, professionalization and their mobility for delivering quality engineering services in India and other countries. It has been organizing National Conferences and other activities on important themes relevant to the engineering profession’s role in national economic development. Information regarding ECI is available at http://www.ecindia.org.

Recently, Engineering Council of India (ECI) has signed MOU with AICTE after AICTE made internship training mandatory for all engineering students. This was to help the engineering institutions (colleges/institutes/universities) for organising internship training. Some of the institutions have pointed out the need for appropriate branding when they approach the industry in this regard.

In this context, it is proposed to provide the AICTE approved engineering institutions, (which will include colleges, institutes, and universities), with a facility to get an Affiliate Status of ECI which would help them in their interaction with students, academia and industry. The Affiliate institutions can use ECI Affiliate logo and branding, apart from availing the benefits of

a) Interactions with the Industry.
b) Organising Seminars, Conferences & workshops.
c) Conducting Joint research programs and / or jointly take-up Consultancy projects. d) Interactions with domestic & overseas peer groups.
e) Exchange programs for Faculty & students.

The institutions can apply to ECI for grant of this status for which they will be required to pay Rs. 20,000 per annum for Colleges/Institutes. Rs. 50,000 per annum for Universities. (They can pay 10 times to get a life time affiliation status). GST as applicable shall be extra.
