Fundamentals of Engineering exam

In the United States, the Fundamentals of Engineering exam (also known as the FE exam) is the first of two examinations engineers must pass in order to be certified as a Professional Engineer. Other short terms for the exam include EIT, which comes from the former official name for the exam, Engineer In Training, and EI, which comes from Engineer Intern, another former name used in some states. It is open to anyone who has a degree in engineering or a related field, or is in their last year of an ABET-accredited engineering degree program. Some state licensure boards permit students to take it prior to their final year, and numerous states allow those who have never attended an approved program to take the exam if they have a state-determined number of years of work experience in engineering. Michigan allows anyone in the last years of an ABET accredited Engineering program to take the exam, according to ELSES - Michigan Exam Registration. The exam is administered by the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES). A selection of states allow those with ABET accredited Engineering Technology degrees to take the examination.
