ARE CENG AND IENG EQUAL IN STATUS

Do you mean IEng when you state Techlogists ?)  

 
Moshe,
was only pointing out more or No less that confusion exists in other countries as to the title incorporated engineer, that extract I quoted was taken from the web site below:

 
http://www.surrey.ac.uk/library/subjects/electronicengineering/

Are CEng and IEng Equal in status, don’t think so IEng is not well known to the general public or even within  the engineering community. My opinion is that the IEng does not want something for nothing not a grandfather to CEng only wants a more recognisable title. There has always been a class distinction, think of POWER ENGINEER 1st, 2nd and 3rd Class, it does not mean what it says on the business card, but there it is.

I would settle for lower case if that what’s needed.

CEng = Chartered Engineer

(Lower case) ceng =incorporated engineer.


It is said that the CEng’s or Royal academy of Engineering does not like Chartered Technologist for IEngs as it sounds superior, what about Chartered Technician. What is the difference between a technologist and technician anyhow, (from an old book) the former is able to write and talk about his job in abstract, general terms, and Science and technology are essentially public activities. (That statement is still not clear to me).

Moshe, thanks for sharing your knowledge with us, and sorry for my post being all over the place

In  this thread.

Regards

John
