Political party in Iran From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Islamic Society of Engineers (ISE) (Persian: جامعهٔ اسلامی مهندسین, Jāme'-e eslāmī-ye mohandisīn) is a principlist political organization of engineers in Iran. Formerly one of the parties aligned with the Combatant Clergy Association,[1] it is close to the Islamic Coalition Party, whose decisions it mostly follows. It is questionable whether it is an independent and strong party.[3]
