Formal engineering professional organizations
in Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya sub-region started
in 1945 as the East African Association of Engineers
and subsequently the East African Institution
of Engineers (EAIE) which became unworkable in
the seventies with the then political turmoil
in the region.
In 1972 the Uganda Institution of
Professional Engineers (UIPE) was born and has
had the mantle of steering the engineering profession
in Uganda ever since.
