Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on May 4, 1950 to the The Engineering Delegacy.

Unfortunately we have no information on the meaning or origin of these arms yet.

If you have any information on the origin or meaning of these arms, or have additional images that you want to share, please mail us your information !

Previously the Institution used different arms that, as far as I know, were never granted. They can be seen on the medal below:
