What is a Registered Professional Engineer?

A registered professional engineer has demonstrated general proficiency in the field of engineering and has become specialized in a particular discipline of engineering. To become a registered professional engineer, the candidate must have graduated from an accredited 4 year college or university offering an engineering curriculum, must have at least 4 years of engineering "on the job" experience, and must pass an exam administered by the Commonwealth. This exam is very rigorous requiring most of the day to complete. Upon obtaining a passing grade, the candidate will be issued the coveted "PE" license which allows the engineer to practice engineering in the Commonwealth.
