Maybe you would like to be a Professional Engineer 36
What do we mean by a Profession? 1.Requires specialized & highly skilled knowledge 2.Requires academic training 3.Regulated by professional bodies 4.Requires examination of competence 5.Function of professional work is vital to society 6.Perform under a standard of professional behavior that requires adherence to the highest principles of legal and ethical conduct 7.Requires continuing education to keep current with rapidly changing technology 37
The Engineering Profession Training, Qualifications, Advancements, Licensure BS required for all entry level engineering jobs To become a Professional Engineer (PE) requires a license All 50 states require licensure for engineers who offer their services directly to the public 2 38
Training, Qualifications, Advancements, Licensure BS Degree Pass the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam Work Four Years Under a PE Pass Principles and Practice of Engineering Exam 39
Being a licensed engineer The PE license allows you to call yourself a professional engineer Can have legal authority for engineering work (e.g. sign/stamp drawings, bid for government contracts, own company, serve as expert witness, etc.) Some states require at least one licensed engineer in a company. 40
