Eugen Dobrogeanu (17 October 1913 – 18 February 1992) was a Romanian officer (colonel retd.), the first bibliographer of the Romanian criminology and active participant in Operation Autonomous.

After finishing elementary school in 1925, Eugen Dobrogeanu attended the high school Gheorghe Sincai in Bucharest and acquired bachelor's degree in 1932. In the same year he was admitted to the gendarmerie officer school, which he graduated from in 1935. Subsequently he acted as an instructor at the non-commissioned gendarmerie officer school in Focşani, where he lectured on criminology and forensic science until 1940.

As a graduate of law high school – faculty of jurisprudence – and holder of the antedoctorate oral examination in economy policy, Eugen Dobrogeanu published numerous studies about scientific police, criminology and applied criminology. In his work "The forensic science in the Romanian bibliography" ("The modern police", Focsani 1940) he emphasised, among other things, the merits of professors Drs. Nicolae Minovici and Mina Minovici, whose activity, within the scope of the forensic medicine research in Bucharest, put the basis of the Romanian forensic jurisprudence.

At the beginning of 1941 Eugen Dobrogeanu was transferred to the supervisory office of the gendarmerie in Bucharest where he was appointed chief of the department for the pursuit of the Legionary Movement. In this function he conducted centralisation and systematisation of everyday information bulletins.

Between 1943–1944 major Eugen Dobrogeanu was directly involved in the Operation Autonomous by order of general Constantin Tobescu, as a member of the military guard in charge with the custody of three English officers: Alfred Gardyne de Chastelain, Ivor Porter and Silviu Meţianu, parachutists taken and held captive in Romania.
