Résumé

To “protect the health, safety and welfare of the general public”, states and territories in the U.S. require that engineers who design HVAC and fire protection systems, building structural systems, water and waste water systems, street and highways, etc. be licensed. There are numerous industrial exceptions to this requirement. Licensing is not limited to U.S. citizens but is available to all engineers throughout the world who meet the criteria. There is not a national licensing process. Each state or territory sets its own requirement for licensure but most states attempt to have somewhat similar requirements to allow for comity. In general the criteria for licensure require an accredited engineering degree, passage of two exams and a minimum of four years of progressive engineering experience under the guidance of a licensed engineer. In the U.S. licensure and various certifications serve two different purposes with totally different processes toward achieving the designation. This paper will provide details regarding the licensing process.
