'''M.B.M. Engineering College''' (Mugneeram Bangur Memorial Engineering College, '''MBM''') is a college in [[Jodhpur]], India.

==History==
The M.B.M. Engineering College was established on 15 August 1951, by the [[Government of Rajasthan]]. This was made possible by a donation of [[Rupees|INR]] 8,00000 (8 Lacs) from Seth Ramcooverji Bangur of [[Didwana]] and INR 2,00000 (2 Lacs) from the Hanwant Benevolent Fund. [[Mathuradas Mathur]] and [[Achal Das Bohra|A. D. Bohra]] started the college in the Ugamji's bungalow near the railway over bridge leading to Sojati Gate, within two months of obtaining approval from the Government. The laboratories and hostels were housed in the old guest house in Ratanada. After a couple of years, the college moved to its present location covering an area of 92,000 sq.m. and new hostels were constructed. With the establishment of [[Jodhpur University]] (now J.N. Vyas University) in July 1962, this college became its Faculty of Engineering.<ref name="mbmalumni1">{{Cite web |url=http://www.mbmalumni.org/brief_history.php |title=Archived copy |access-date=18 September 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180411203538/http://www.mbmalumni.org/brief_history.php |archive-date=11 April 2018 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
