Game Forum / Role Playing Games / Final Fantasy / June 2003So I passed the EIT Exam...
EIT = Engineer in Training. Soon I will be semi licensed or something. In 5 years I can take the PE (professional Engineer) exam. "Stilgar, do we have wormsign?" "Usul, we have wormsign the likes of which even Ramen Junkie: Your Company's Computer Guy has never seen!" > EIT = Engineer in Training. Soon I will be semi licensed or > something.

So, uh, you'll be engineering what? DDR peripherals? Ninja hats? Speaking of which, why aren't fashion designers considered engineers?

Everything in the world is engineered. Everything. Some things have been engineered enough though they can be build without thinking about it. "Stilgar, do we have wormsign?"

How is the job market in your area?

How is the job market in your area? Im > thinking of moving I've only barely looked into it. I have not been able to secure an internship in my field for the summer so probably not great. I'm thinking of looking in the St Louis Area. It's still semi close to home (Springfield IL) but also it's close to school so I could still visit with people I know there on weekends etc. A lot of jobs seem to want 5 year experience minimum, I'm thinking of looking into government work to help gain that, possibly OSHA. > > > > "Ramen Junkie: Your Company's Computer Guy" <lameazoid@gamebox.nett> > > wrote [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > minimum, I'm thinking of looking into government work to help gain that, > possibly OSHA. Fascinating... There is a bit here in Aus, but I'm not sure I want to start working yet, so I feel I maybe travel, its hard to find whats on offer overseas though.... ram said >EIT = Engineer in Training.

Ouch. Not as bad as having to get a Ph.D, I guess. Balthasar -- Life contains but two tragedies.

Someone from there was telling me that they don't have Bachelor of Engineering degrees, just Bachelor of Science, in which case you would have to discern that it was an engineering degree from the discipline. Just curious how it works over there... in Canada, you can't call yourself an engineer unless you have a B. Eng from a university that's accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (a B. Sc would definitely NOT cut it). Then once you've graduated, it takes about four years apprenticing plus an exam in order to get your P. Eng, which is the professional engineer's license (and gets you your seal, etc.). Dan.

"Bachelor of Engineering Science" or some such. I don't think they actually have them broken down into say "Civil Engineering Science" or "Electrical Engineering Science". Anyway I think that is how it goes. > Just curious how it works over there... in Canada, you can't call > yourself an engineer unless you have a B.

I know my school is ABET Accredited. Probably strands for something like American Board of Engineering Technology or some such. > Then once you've graduated, it takes about four years apprenticing plus > an exam in order to get your P.

It takes 5 here but you have to pass the EIT exam first I think. > > In article <xZKJa.3329$JG2.3139@newssvr31.news.prodigy.com>, > > "Ramen Junkie: Your Company's Computer Guy" <lameazoid@gamebox.nett> [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > Accredited.

I think technically I can go for a Ph.D (or Psy.D) in Psychology at a non-accredited institution, but it's extremely risky. Balthasar -- Life contains but two tragedies.

Here in Australia you do a B Eng in whatever discipline you choose, as long as the course is credited by IEAust you can call yourself a Engineer, thus I am an Industrial Engineer as of October (my ceremony). Most courses require only a semester of work experience. |
