Failure of the Board to send or of the licensee to receive a biennial registration application does not relieve the licensee of the biennial registration responsibility. A licensee shall disclose disciplinary action in another jurisdiction whether or not the licensee holds an active license to practice in the other jurisdiction. Requirements for certification as an engineer-in-training and for licensure as a professional engineer.
A candidate for certification as an engineer-in-training shall be of good moral character and achieve a passing score on the NCEES fundamentals of engineering examination. To qualify for the fundamentals of engineering examination, the candidate shall possess one of the following qualifications: i Graduation from an undergraduate engineering curriculum in the United States accredited by ABET.
A student who has completed 2 years in an ABET-accredited undergraduate curriculum in the United States and has maintained current enrollment may, with Board approval, sit for the fundamentals of engineering examination, but will not be eligible for certification as an engineer-in-training until the student provides proof of graduation.
The effective date of certification will be the later of the date of graduation or the date of notification from NCEES of achieving a passing score on the fundamentals of engineering examination.
Enrollment in a graduate-level or foreign engineering curriculum does not authorize the student to sit for the fundamentals of engineering examination prior to graduation. The experience must be of a grade and character sufficient to enable the candidate to independently learn through practice the principles of mathematics and science attained through formal education. Academic training in engineering subjects may be counted towards the experience requirement. Unless otherwise stated by the appropriate licensing authority of that jurisdiction, the effective date of the engineer-in-training certificate of a candidate who was certified in a jurisdiction other than this Commonwealth will be the date the certificate was first issued.
To qualify for the principles and practice examination, the engineer-in-training shall have obtained one of the following experience qualifications after the effective date of the engineer-in-training certificate and before the submission of the examination application: i Four years of progressive experience in a major branch of engineering, acquired under the supervision of a professional engineer licensed in the United States or an engineer who, through education and experience, possesses the equivalent level of expertise as that of a professional engineer licensed in the United States.
The experience must be of a grade and character to qualify the candidate to assume responsible charge of the work involved in the practice of the major branch of engineering in which the candidate indicates proficiency. For sales, construction and similar nondesign experience to be acceptable, the candidate shall demonstrate that engineering principles and engineering knowledge were actually employed.
Unacceptable experience includes the selection of data or equipment from a company catalog or similar publication, the execution as a contractor of work designed by a professional engineer, the supervision of construction work as a superintendent and the operation or maintenance of machinery or equipment.
The candidate shall support all work experience, regardless of duration, with adequate references. The experience must include the teaching of engineering courses at the third-year, fourth-year or graduate level, covering the breadth and depth of the curriculum, and be of a grade and character to qualify the candidate to assume responsible charge of the work involved in the practice of engineering.
References for certification as an engineer-in-training or licensure as a professional engineer. At least three of the references shall be professional engineers licensed in the United States who are unrelated to the candidate.
The remaining references may be professional land surveyors, professional geologists or unli-censed engineers who, through education and experience, possess an equivalent level of expertise as that of a professional engineer. A reference who is not a professional engineer licensed in the United States is required to submit a curriculum vitae. The candidate will be notified in writing of any investigation that is being conducted. Based on the results of the investigation, the Board may require the candidate to submit additional references.
Grandfather requirements for certification as an engineer-in-training and for licensure as a professional engineer. This section applies to a candidate for certification as an engineer-in-training and subsequent licensure as a professional engineer who received a qualifying academic degree before June 30, , or who began acquiring qualifying experience before February 19, A candidate for certification as an engineer-in-training under this subsection shall be of good moral character and achieve a passing score on the NCEES fundamentals of engineering examination, except that completion of the fundamentals of engineering examination is not required of a candidate who received a qualifying academic degree before January 1, To qualify for the fundamentals of engineering examination, the candidate shall possess one of the following qualifications: 1 Graduation from an undergraduate or graduate-level engineering curriculum in the United States accredited by ABET or graduation from a foreign undergraduate or graduate-level engineering curriculum accredited by ABET.
Experience used to satisfy this requirement may not also be used to satisfy the experience requirements of subsection c 1 iii. A candidate for licensure as a professional engineer under this subsection shall be of good moral character and achieve a passing score on the NCEES principles and practice examination in one of the branches of engineering.
A candidate may not substitute a post-baccalaureate engineering degree for any part of the required experience. Grandfather requirements for licensure as a professional engineer without certification as an engineer-in-training. A candidate who began acquiring qualifying experience before February 19, , may apply for licensure as a professional engineer without being certified as an engineer-in-training by satisfying the requirements of this section.
A candidate who has satisfied the requirements of subsection b will be licensed as a professional engineer upon achieving a passing score on the NCEES fundamentals of engineering examination and the NCEES principles and practice examination in one of the branches of engineering.
A candidate may not be admitted to sit for the principles and practice of engineering examination until achieving a passing score on the fundamentals of engineering examination. Branches of engineering. The professional engineer may then practice any branch of engineering in which the professional engineer has proven proficiency by reason of education and experience, and in which the professional engineer is willing to accept full legal, financial and professional responsibility.
Registration boards examine and keep a record of qualifications for each applicant for registration. Many registration boards expect an NCEES Record as a basis for reciprocal registration, although some will consider applicants without this record.
Professional engineer licenses typically need to be renewed on an annual or biennial basis. In addition to filing a renewal application and paying the license renewal fee, engineers in almost every state must also complete continuing education hours during the license renewal period.
Many states require either 24 or 30 hours of continuing education over the course of a two-year license period. A dedicated compliance expert can help you keep track of varying jurisdiction requirements and updated laws. FE Fundamentals of Engineering - An exam testing on basic engineering principles that is required to become an engineer in training. Reciprocity - When a licensed engineer in one state can provide documentation often an NCEES Record to more easily apply for a license in another jurisdiction.
Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology ABET Accrediting board that sets standards for university programs in a variety of applied science disciplines. American Society of Civil Engineers ASCE Organization that provides continuing education, professional conferences, and advocacy efforts to the civil engineering community.
Engineering Accreditation Commission EAC Reviews accreditation requirements and makes final decisions regarding the accreditation process. Filing fees depend on your individual situation.
