Happy Engineers Day : Proud to be an Engineer

Sir M Visvesvaraya

Engineer’s Day in India is observed on 15 September every year. In 2025, it will fall on Monday, 15 September 2025. The date remains the same annually, and the celebrations take place across schools, colleges, universities, and engineering institutions throughout the country

Engineer’s Day is a special occasion that celebrates the hard work, creativity, and dedication of engineers who shape the world around us. From the bridges we cross and the buildings we live in, to the technology we use every day, engineers play a key role in making life easier and society more advanced. Every year in India, this day is observed with great respect and enthusiasm to remind us of the importance of engineering in nation-building. It is also a day to inspire young minds to take up engineering as a career and to honour the legacy of one of India’s greatest engineers, Sir Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya.

Engineer’s Day in India is observed on 15 September to mark the birth anniversary of Sir Mokshagundam Visvesvaraya, one of the greatest engineers and visionaries in Indian history. Born on 15 September 1861 in Muddenahalli, Karnataka, Sir M. Visvesvaraya made remarkable contributions in the fields of irrigation, flood management, and infrastructure development.

He also served as the Dewan of Mysore from 1912 to 1918 and played a key role in modernizing the state with new industries, educational institutions, and public works. His dedication and engineering brilliance earned him the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian award, in 1955.

Today, his birthday is remembered not only to honour his legacy but also to inspire future generations of engineers to follow his path of innovation, discipline, and service to the nation.

Happy Engineers Day to all my readers

Stay happy & keep smiling 😊

  1. My heartfelt greetings to you, Jayanta for being extraordinary Engineer, professor in Engineering College & for engineering words well on WordPress…
    I reblog as my tribute to my Engineer daughter in Poland & other Engineer friends.
    Your post is excellent as usual.
    Sir Mokshagundam Vishweshwarayya halted running training with his keen ear for music, listening to train wheels hammering rail road & identified crack in it not only with knowledge of Engineering but of Music.
    In Wai where I taught English in college, I helped local contractors association to observe Engineers’ Day for the first time because Association Chairman Sunil Shinde (Director, Wai Urban Bank) adored my multifaceted talent in languages & love for technology.
