ARE CENG AND IENG EQUAL IN STATUS

Nouman Abid Chuhan
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.

    Nouman, I think it depends on county.

    In the past if one was IEng or CEng then they could apply to City and Guilds for Diploma/Sr award of GCGI and MCGI in Engineering.

    In USA GCGI is evaluated by NACES member services to BScEng or BEng and MCGI as MEng or MScEng degree from US accredited University.

    In USA if you hold foreign qualifications and apply for employment especially with government then NACES report evaluation (Similar to NARIC UK) is required. My MCGI in Engineering adds additional value as it comparable to MEng degree here in the US.

    The recognition of C&G Diplomas varies based on a country and as of 2013 the rout to GCGI, MSCGI changed.

    I also seen a few states in US that accept CEng and wave the requirement for writing FE/EIT exam when one is applying for PE license.
