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.

    Daniel,

    Many colleges and university's have limit on credit transfer, they will allow up to 75% of the degree to be transferred credit as long as the credit matches the accepting institutions program didnt pass the limitation in years, how old and has appropriate acreditation. So there is no contradiction. Even if you try to earn second bachelors degree you will be allowed to transfer 90 of the 120 credits required.( except the big 3 colleges  in US, Excelsior College accepts 116 of the 120 credits in transfer)

    The policy is determined by the accepting institution. Some can reject completely some can grant partial credit and some can grant full credit etc.

    As to my Bachelors degree:

    On the diploma it states degree of  Bachelor's in Electronic Engineering Technology.  The College calls it Bachelors of Technology degree.

    It has 139 semester credits distributed the following way:

    53 Semester Credits: General Education, Math, Sciences, Humanities and Social Sciences.

    63 Semester Credits: Electronics Engineering Technology.

    23 Semester Credits: Computer Engineering Technology.

    Typical US Bachelors degree is 120 semester credits.  We have BA - Bachelors of Art, BSc bachelors of Science and as you see Bachelors of Technology degrees and there also BSW such as Bachelors in Social Work. The difference between bachelors of science and bachelors of technology is the concentration, the BSc concentrates heavier of physics and other science classes, the Bachelor of Technology concentrates heavier on Technology and other practical or applied classes.

    Today I can use BEET or BTEE   to describe  Bachelors degree in Electronics Engineering Technology.

    One of my other credentials from EU it also was evaluated as BEng(hon) I can put it as well but it creates confusion.

    Our College's Institute also offered an Associate in Applied Science degree in Engineering Technology as a 2 year FT or 4 Years PT and usually the persons who earned the AASEET degree (first 2 years of BEET or BCET degree) would continue for additional 2 years to earn the BEET degree. So in US its a bachelors degree and I never tried to compare it to the canadian system, I don't know what is canadian equivalent as it has additional year and more credit hours then a 3 year diploma.

    My LCGI in electronics was earned based on my Air Force Technician and Advanced Technician education (It had to be evaluated by NARIC UK) and years of experience that satisfied C&G to award LCGI in Electronics. Before that I completed vocational high school 12 forms with a trend of 4 years in Electronics. I also studied in IOU and Technicon - Israeli Institute of Technology and even at ICS what got me in to Institution of the Engineers and Technicians in London in 1984.

    I will gladly answer other questions or concerns, clarifications etc.
