Beta Epsilon is an engineering-based non-profit non-stock fraternity from the UP College of Engineering, and is the oldest engineering-based fraternity in Asia. It was formally founded on August 23, 1929 by nine scholars, athletes and leaders of the University of the Philippines, under the suggestion and guidance of Col. Alejandro S. Melchor, who later came to be the fraternity's first faculty adviser. They pledged to organize a fraternal group using the greek letters Beta and Epsilon, abbreviated from "Brotherhood of Engineers".

Beta Epsilon has engaged in activities that reflect its own credo of scholarship and service beyond Engineering. These activities continue to motivate the brotherhood individually or fraternally throughout the years. Today, Betans continue to live with high standards. Through different means such as calamity relief efforts, welcoming events, sports events and other outreach programs, the Beta Epsilon still embodies its pact of service to the college, university, and country.
