The NATO Military Engineering Centre of Excellence (MILENG COE) is an International Military Organization (IMO) as designated by the Paris Protocol of 28 August 1952. The organization is a part of the NATO Centre of Excellence. Sponsored by fourteen European Union Member States, the United Kingdom, Turkey, Canada, and the United States, the Centre belongs to a wider framework that supports NATO’s transformation process. The organization's objective is to assist NATO member countries, nonmember countries, and international organizations in enhancing military engineering capabilities. MILENG COE is co-located in the German Army Military Engineer School in Ingolstadt, Germany.{{cite web | url=https://fhs.brage.unit.no/fhs-xmlui/bitstream/handle/11250/100116/Schievelkamp%20Ronny%20-%20masteroppgave%20FHS.pdf | title=Master Thesis: Germany and NATO Centres of Excellence | access-date=2015-02-10 | author=Schievelkamp, Ronny | publisher=Norwegian Defence University College }} A sister-project is the NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (CCDCOE).
