The Institution of Engineers (India) (IEI) was established by Sir Thomas Holland and others in Madras (which is now called Chennai) in 1920. In 1935, it obtained the Royal Charter from King George V to promote and advance the art, science and practice of engineering and technology in India. The first President of the Institution was Sir Thomas R. J. Ward (President 1920). Sir Thomas Guthrie Russell (President 1933-34) played a key role in the successful petition for a Royal Charter. The current President is Professor S. C. Naik. The Institution has been prominent amongst the founder members of the Commonwealth Engineers' Council (CEC) and the Federation of Engineering Institutions of South and Central Asia (FEISCA). The Institution has a provisional membership of the Engineers Mobility Forum since 2003. [1]

Today, the Institution is head-quartered in Kolkata, with 94 state and local centres. With half a million members (of which about 84,500 are corporate members), it is one of the largest professional bodies in the English-speaking world.[citation needed] Life corporate members of the Institution are accredited with the Chartered Engineer title.
