    foreign undergraduate degree and US master

    It is interesting to see engineers to discuss the polotical questions as mechanics fix the PC issues with hammer!!! I would think the US policy-make will close the door to prevent foreign engineers entering US if it can make the country better! I also would think majority memeber of the state...

    foreign undergraduate degree and US master

    My BS from China is not treated as ABET so I have to need 7 years of experience----frustrating. Luckily, my MS from University of Cincinnati gave me 1 year credit. I finally got my transcript from my University in China because the Library has the program---as long as you pay, your transcipt...

    Can I take PE without 4 yrs exp?

    I am the PE in NY, passed the CSE in last October. According to the timing experience, It is hard for you now gather all three years experience and send to TX board before the deadline even with MS degree. Why do you not apply for the job with mentioning that you had FE, preparing with PE...

    foreign undergraduate degree and US master

    I had same issue, my BS from China is not listed in the ABET, so the NY Dept. treat my BS as Bachelor of Engineering, which means that I need extra two years working experience. I had enough years of working experience in US, so I finally got approval for the exam. Your case is similar, as long...

    Industry or Consulating firm?

    I am working at Utility, I had PE last year. I am wondering which direction to go after having license. As a engineer at power plant, 80% of the time does not feel the need of PE, but relatively stable, income is okay, not as high as the firms. I had no firm experience at all. Anybody had...

    foreign undergraduate degree and US master

    You better explain this situation to WI exam board and ask them if it is okay you translate and let your university stamped it. Besides, you better check whether any form from WI need signed by your university. It is tough, you can do it, it took me almost 1 year to get the approval from NY...

    foreign undergraduate degree and US master

    For example, you had BS in Germany and you want to apply for the MS, or PHD study from a university in US, normally the university will ask you ask your college send the official transcript (NOT from youself). What will you do? If your college does not have the program, it will be tough. I do...

    foreign undergraduate degree and US master

    I had BS and MS from China and MS from US, when I applied for the PE exam in NY, they sent the verification letter to the University where I got my BS. It took about 3 months that the NY Dept. of Education get the verification letter back from China. I do think every normal college/University...
