Pakistan Army Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering

The Pakistan Army Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering is a military administrative and the engineering staff branch of the Pakistan Army.

The EME provides maintenance and inspections of wide range of Pakistan Army's mechanized and aviation assets and provides machinery of components besides supporting expertise in electrical works for the Pakistan Army. 70 EME, 53 EME and 55 EME one of being the best EME Battalions having the maximum number of resources and manpower.

Overview
The Pakistan Army Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering (EME) was formed as a separate maintenance arm into the Pakistan Army from the partition of the British Indian Army's Corps of EME— only twenty officers joining the arm. It was the British officers in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME) that provided the support and training to raise the corps to help maintain the equipment of the Pakistan Army. Brigadier Vivian Edgar Beards was EME first officer commanding when it was commissioned in the Pakistan Army as a corps on 20 October 1947.

From its early years, the education on electrical and mechanical engineering was provided by the Loughborough University with a mutual agreement between the British Army and the Pakistan Army. In 1957, the Pakistan Army established the College of Electrical & Mechanical Engineering from the crucial support from the United States Army— many of whom went to United States to study electrical and mechanical engineering at the United States' universities. The College of Electrical & Mechanical Engineering was later upgraded in 1969.

The Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering did not restricted its support to the army but extended its support to air force and navy, though each branch established its own staff corps to maintain their arms within their units. In 1960, an airborne course was established in the EME, making it mandatory for its officers and personnel to complete the parachute course— the EME has the oldest active parachutist courses in the country. In 1970s, the Corps of EME played a crucial role in support of the machining of components, PCB prints, and the engineering aspects of the Pakistan's nuclear weapons program.

Many of its officers were instrumental in establishing the Combat Development Directorate, which was the pursuant of the Strategic Plans Division, that advised the Army GHQ in matters of nuclear-based strategic deterrence.

The Corps of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering is commanded the by its Director-General, usually at the active-duty two-star rank, Major-General, who works under the Chief of the General Staff at the Army GHQ in Rawalpindi, Punjab in Pakistan.
