Incorporated Engineer (IEng) UK vs Engineering Technologist (ET) Pakistan

Nouman Abid Chuhan
Hi / Assalam u Alaikum


I am registered with the EC as Incorporated Engineer (IEng) through the IET UK.  Now i am very pleased to inform all of you that i am also registered with the National Technology Council (NTC) www.ntc-hec.org.pk Pakistan as Professional Engineering Technologist (PE.Tech).


Four Years B.Tech-Hons or BS Tech or BSc Engineering Technology Degrees (attested by the Higher Education Commission - HEC) are the primary requirement to get register with the NTC Pakistan as the Engineering Technologist.  On the other hand, EC UK requires two years HND or three years Bachelors Engineering or Technology Degree for the title of Incorporated Engineer (IEng).


I would suggest that the EC UK should also upgrade the eligibility criteria for IEng as four years degree and change the title from IEng to Chartered Engineering Technologist (CET).  Its my point of view.  The Standards of other countries may also be compared other than Pakistan in this context.


Thank you.

    You can't get IEng with HND, you need BEng Honours, a 3 year degree.

    UK's 3 years BEng is not an Honours Degree but Pass Degree, as per my information.


    No, it's an honours degree, unless, as Roy said, you fail something.
