Overview

This act regulates the practice of professional engineering, defining who may perform engineering work and hold themselves out to the public as an engineer. It establishes a licensing scheme administered by a state board, which sets entry qualifications, issues and renews licenses, and adopts rules governing professional conduct and standards of practice. It also provides the enforcement machinery for that scheme, authorizing the board to investigate complaints, discipline licensees, and act against unlicensed practice.
