Should i write

Bachelor of Engineering from [Place]

or

Seems both sound right to me, or might be i am not good in my English language usage.

I suppose the place in brackets refers to an academic institution. The best option is to use your first example. The use of the preposition in would make me expect some information on specialisation in a particular branch of engineering.
