ARE CENG AND IENG EQUAL IN STATUS

Nouman Abid Chuhan over 8 years ago

Can we say that the CEng and IEng be considered equal titles in professional status or IEng is inferior than CEng.

As the Application Form for both CEng and IEng is same.

In UK indeed any one can call them selves an Engineer, there are Boiler Engineers and I seen a train operator who is an Engineer etc etc.

Now in USA is the same. The other day we had dinner at a restaurant and we decided to seat outside, it was a Hilton hotel I think in DT Irvine, CA.

It got cold so my friends wive asked the waitress if they can turn on the heater/lamp next to us, she replied that an Engineer will come shortly to turn on the Heater. Then I asked if a CPA the US equivalent of Chartered Accountant will bring us our check.
