The Professional Engineer
A professional engineer is competent by virtue of his fundamental education and training to apply the scientific method and outlook to theanalysis and solution of engineering problems. He is able to assume personal responsibility for the development and application of
engineering science and knowledge, notably in research, planning, design, construction, manufacturing, superintending, managing and inthe education of the engineer. His work is predominantly intellectual and
varied and not of a routine mental or physical character. It requires the exercise of original thought and judgment and ability to supervise the technical and administrative work of others. His education will have been such as to make him capable of closely and continuously following progress in his branch of engineering by consulting newly published work on a world-wide basis, assimilating such information and applying it independently. He is thus in a position to contribute to the development of the science and art of engineering."
