The Institution of Engineers, Pakistan came into existence in 1948 with its Headquarters at Dacca, the then Capital of East Pakistan with the blessing of the Father of Nation Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah .It was registered as a Society under the Societies Registration Act of 1871.

In 1971, when Bangladesh separated, its Headquarters shifted to Lahore necessitating the revision of Constitution to meet the changed circumstances.

On 28th May 1973 the General meeting in its meeting held at Lahore carried out certain amendments which remained effective till 15th February 1979, when certain articles of the Constitution were again revised and approved by the General Body in its meeting held at Karachi on 16th February 1979.

In its 43th Biennial Meeting held on 18th July 2001 at Islamabad, the General Body considered the recommendations of the Constitution &Bye-Laws Committee and resultantly approved a good number of very important amendments to meet the changing aspirations, expectations of the engineers and legal requirements of Constitution.
