EIT
The Engineer In Training (EIT) exam (now called the FE exam) is the first step in getting a Professional Engineering (PE) licence, and I just filled out the application. The test isn’t until October, which should give me plenty of time to start studying up on the subjects that I’m rusty on, or dont know at all.
Although I’ve officially changed my Major to Computer Science, I will still attempt to get my PE based on work experience, it just may prove a little more difficult than if I had a degree in Engineering.
So if I’m not an Engineering student, why am I trying to get a PE license? Good question … Why not! I do still like Engineering, and having the PE is an exceptional thing to have on any resume. Combined with a B.S. in Computer Science I think I would be able to do something that I really enjoyed instead of having to settle with something to get by.
So wish me luck to the future, I’ll let everybody know how it goes :-).
