Occupational Categories

in Engineering

What are the occupational categories in the engineering field


as recognized by EA?

Engineer professions are classified based on your


educational credentials. If you are an engineer, you must
choose the best and most appropriate ANZSCO
occupation code from all occupational engineering
categories.

If you want to move to Australia, you can do so through


the CDR. Engineers Australia recognizes three
occupational groups within the engineering team in
Australia.

Professional Engineer

It indicates you have the qualities to earn a customer's


trust. It indicates to a company that you are capable of
taking on a more significant amount of responsibility.

It necessitates respect among your coworkers. It's a


picture of pride and proportion of your hard-won
achievement that you see in yourself.

Engineers must complete a 4 year college degree, work


for a minimum of four years under the supervision of a
Professional Engineer, pass two escalating competency
exams, and get a license from their state's licensure
board to obtain a license.

PEs must then maintain and enhance their abilities throughout


their careers to keep their licenses.

PEs assist make us more beneficial, keep us safer, and enable all
of us to live preferable lifestyles than ever before by combining
their specialized abilities with their high standards for ethical
and quality assurance.

Without proof of skill, anyone could step in as an engineer a


century ago. In 1907, Wyoming passed the first engineering
licensure legislation to protect the public's safety, security,
and welfare.

To ensure public safety, every state now controls engineering


by allowing only Professional Engineers (PEs) to sign and seal
engineering designs and provide services to the general
public.

Engineers who want to use the PE seal must go through a


series of processes to prove their competence.

A four-year engineering degree from an accredited


engineering institution is required.
Pass the FE exam (Fundamentals of Engineering).

Under the supervision of a PE, complete four years of


progressive engineering experience.
Pass the PE exam (Principles and Practice of Engineering).

A Professional Engineer's primary responsibilities include:


To concentrate on whole systems.
To create and implement new engineering techniques.

To put leadership and management abilities into practice.


To explore engineering possibilities holistically, taking
into consideration environmental, community, and
societal concerns.

To solve a variety of issues.


Engineering Technologist

An engineering technologist is a specialist who works in


engineering to improve and use existing technologies.

Engineering technology education is more practical than


engineering degrees that are focused on imaginary science.

Using core engineering principles and specific talents,


technologists collaborate with engineers regularly on a
variety of projects. Engineering technologists frequently take
on top management roles in the sector or start their
businesses.

Technologists' work mainly focuses on the technical spectrum


closest to product development, production, building, and
engineering operating activities.

As an Engineering Technologist, you are skilled at utilizing


your extensive knowledge base to do both simple and
complicated engineering tasks.

You're an expert in engineering systems and communications,


with the ability to recognize and resolve complex
technological problems.

An Engineering Technologist's primary responsibilities


include:
To concentrate on the system's interactions

Modifying and adapting existing engineering techniques


To advance engineering technology

Engineering Associate

An Engineering Associate works under general supervision on


moderately complex engineering assignments that require
established procedures, methodologies, and criteria.

As an Engineering Associate, you put your mind and talents to


work protecting the systems, stock, and structure that your
business and Australia rely on.

An Engineering Associate's responsibilities include:


to concentrate on specific aspects of the system
Working within the confines of the law and following
established norms and procedures.
