Morphology
The meaning ('the science of engineering' or the branch of knowledge applying scientific principles to engineering) is directly and transparently derived from combining 'engineering' (the discipline of designing/building) with 'science' (a field of study). This noun+noun compositional pattern is standard in English and common cross-linguistically, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Engineering science grew when people joined the practical work of engineering, meaning making and fixing machines and buildings, with the careful study of science. So the phrase now means using scientific ideas and tests to solve real engineering problems and design better machines and systems.
