    I think with your diploma you should be able to join Engineer's Ireland - have a look at their website sure:

    I believe the old IEE (Institute of Electrical Engineers) has recently merged with a manufacturing sector organisation to provide a broader "engineering and technology" focus, the IET. I'm not sure how strong the focus is on manufacturing is though. I was member for 5 years of the IEE, but I'm working in Geophysics now, and they upped the membership from 15 sterling, to 66 or something, so I decided to jack it!

    They're much much more internationally recognised than the IEI

    Their website: www.theiet.org

    EDIT: I'm not where they stand on membership eligibility.
