The College of Engineering of the University of the Philippines Diliman is the largest degree-granting unit in the U.P. System in terms of student population. The college is also known formally as UP COE, COE, and informally as Eng'g (pronounced "eng").

The college of Engineering is composed of eight departments, three of which are housed in the historic Melchor Hall along Osmeña Avenue in the U.P. Diliman campus. These are the Department of Mechanical Engineering (DME), the Department of Geodetic Engineering (DGE), and the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research (DIE/OR).

The Electrical and Electronics Engineering Institute (EEEI) has its own pair of buildings along Velázquez Street facing the entrance to the National Science Complex, while the Department of Computer Science (DCS) moved into their own building beside the EEEI building in early 2007. Since then, the Department of Mining, Metallurgical, and Materials Engineering (DMMME), the Department of Chemical Engineering (DChE), and the Institute of Civil Engineering (ICE) have also moved into their own respective buildings at the Engineering Complex, with each building facing C.P. Garcia Avenue.

The College Library is located in two different buildings: one in the Melchor Hall and another in the building that houses the DCS.

Since its establishment, the college has produced twenty (20) graduates with U.P. summa cum laude honors and 4 magna cum laude. The COE produced its first summa cum laude graduates in 1920 (Justo Arrastia, B.S.C.E, Tomas Padilla Abello, B.S.M.E.), and the most recent was in 2006 magna cum laude graduate (Terrie Duran Lopez, B.S.Chem and B.S.CoE in 2009).

The college is the college of engineering in the Philippines with the most CHED Centers of Excellence at eleven (11). All of its degree-granting departments have been recognized as a Center of Excellence.
