A European Engineer (Eur Ing) is a professional qualification comparable to the Chartered Engineer title. The Chartered Engineer title is granted by professional associations with a Royal Charter, whilst the Eur Ing title is granted after successful application to a national member of FEANI which includes representation from many European countries, including much of the European Union.

The title Eur Ing is pre-nominal, i.e. it is placed before rather than after the name as in the case of a post-nominal title such as that for academic degrees. Names are also placed on the FEANI Register maintained by FEANI in additional to national member registers.

In countries which have national members which grant the Chartered Engineer title, the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom, then the Chartered Engineer title is a prerequist requirement for an application for the European Engineer title.

Recognition of the qualification and title are generally not specifically incorporated into national law, however in the United Kingdom the Privy Council has approved the titles use; however in all cases approval is only after peer review by the appropriate national engineering society, in addition the EU Directive 89/48/EEC generally exempts a bearer from additional examination in the Union.
