The Starfleet Corps of Engineers (also known as Starfleet Engineering or Starfleet Engineering Corps) is a Starfleet division that deals with specialized engineering problems.

The Corps of Engineers was responsible for the construction of the underground laboratory complex on the Regula asteroid, where the second phase of the Genesis Project was conducted. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)

Admiral Robert Brown was the Starfleet Chief of Engineering in 2294. (Orion Press: Chekov's Enterprise)

In 2375, during the Dominion War, Klingon starships were immune to the Breen energy dampening weapon by adjusting the tritium intermix of their ships' warp cores. This "fix" would not work on Federation ships and Starfleet Chief Miles O'Brien forwarded his findings to Starfleet Engineering for more in-depth analyses. (DS9: "When It Rains...")

In 2383, Jem'Hadar-technological-based schematics for a torpedo called the J3 torpedo were anonymously sent to the Corps of Engineers on Earth to make sense of. The engineers were almost immediately able to figure them out as opposed to the eight years of unsuccess Lieutenant GoyCho had with them. (Star Trek: Phoenix-X: "Transphasic Meltdown")

In an alternate reality experience by Harry Kim, Kim worked at the Corps of Engineers, although it was called Starfleet Engineering Corps. (VOY: "Non Sequitur")

The Corps are named and based after the United States Army Corps of Engineers.

Training and educationEdit

Starfleet Engineering Academy (also referred to as Starfleet Academy College of Engineering) -- with whom the larger division was associated -- was the college of Starfleet Academy tasked with the training and continuing education of Starfleet's engineers. (Star Fleet Technical Manual, Arc of the Wolf: On the Nature of Wind)

Midshipmen assigned to a starship or other Fleet facility for training were assigned to the billet engineer's mate. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
