    The Association is the heir to the traditions of the Hungarian Engineers' Association (from 1872 the Hungarian Engineers and Architects' Association), founded in 1867. Within this, it continues the activities of the Mechanical Engineering and Mechanical Engineering Departments. GTE is one of the largest scientific and social organizations in the country, uniting the technical intelligentsia, and is a member of the Association of Technical and Natural Sciences Associations (MTESZ).

    The MTESZ, founded on June 29, 1948, was joined by the Mechanical Engineering Scientific Association (GTE), founded on February 19, 1949.
