Current through April 27, 2019

Section 3-7 - Application Requirements for Licensure by Examination or those with a Doctoral Degree

(a) Applicants seeking licensure as a professional engineer or professional land surveyor by examination or those with an earned Doctoral Degree as defined in Section 4(a) of this Chapter shall complete the application form. If the application does not contain sufficient space for all information required to be submitted, the applicant may securely attach additional sheets to the form. In addition, all applicants shall:

(i) Arrange to have certified transcripts sent directly from NCEES or the registrar of the college, university, or educational institution to the Board;

(ii) Provide the names and addresses of immediate supervisors from past and present employment;

(iii) Supply the names and addresses of three (3) licensed professionals to serve as references. If the applicant cannot supply such information, he/she must provide to the Board a written, sworn statement explaining why. The applicant shall then provide the names and addresses of three (3) references, unrelated to the applicant, at least one (1) of whom shall be licensed in the profession in which license is sought. All references shall have personal knowledge of the applicant's experience. The Board may require additional references;

(iv) Execute a release authorizing the Board to investigate the applicant's education, experience credentials, and a background that does not evidence conduct adverse to the practice of engineering or land surveying or to the ability to practice engineering or land surveying; and

(v) Complete and submit evidence of lawful presence in the United States.

(vi) If an applicant makes no attempt to complete his/her application within six (6) months from the date of original application, his/her application will be canceled with neither prejudice nor refund of fee.

(b) The applicant shall provide experience verification in one of two methods:

(i) Mail experience verification forms to immediate supervisors from past and present employment or as provided in Section 7(a)(iii) of this chapter. The applicant shall mail any required additional reference forms. The applicant shall have the experience verification forms and reference forms sent directly to the Board Office. Upon receipt of all completed required forms, the application will be evaluated, or:

(ii) Submit NCEES Record Book.

(c) If the application is complete and in the proper form, the Board is satisfied that all statements on the application are true, and the applicant is eligible in all other respects to be licensed in engineering or land surveying for which the applicant has applied, then the Board shall certify the applicant as eligible to take any required examinations, or, if exempt from examination pursuant to the Act, is eligible for licensure. If, for any reason, the Board is not satisfied that all of the statements on the application are true or that the applicant is not eligible in all respects for examination or licensure, it may perform further investigations. If, in the judgment of the Board, the applicant has not furnished satisfactory evidence of qualifications for examination or licensure as required by these rules and regulations, it may deny the application or require additional information. The Board shall require an applicant for professional licensure to have passed both the fundamentals and professional examination, unless exempt pursuant to the Act.

(d) No experience credit will be given for engineering work experience gained during pursuit of an undergraduate education, nor will experience credit be given for both land surveying and engineering for the same period of time.
