Passed the FE, got one year down and 3 or 4 to go until i can get my PE

Is it total years after FE, or just total years?

Now starting a MS in project management.

I couldn't stay motivated to finish my masters in either of those engineering fields while working full time, so im working toward the PM masters online (with penn state still)

i think it's total years experience, but it probably varies from state to state

BS and MS in Electrical Engineering with concentration in computers (UMD did not have a Computer Engineering degree when I went there)
MS in Computer Science obtained during my present job.

Working as a software developer now -- went to this track because during the end of the .Net boom getting a job as a programmer was easier than getting a job as an electrical engineer. I'm happy in my career.

Go west young man.

The civil engineering firms I deal with (BC & Alberta) have been crying for people for the last few years.

I'm a software engineer and my degree is a B.S. in Computer Engineering. I'm not sure that counts as a traditional "engineer" such as Civil, Mech., etc.

Oh and I'm at Purdue by the way, go boilermakers!

So all you engineers...tell everyone where you are going/went to school and where you work, I'm always interested to hear what my fellow engineers are up to these days lol

In other words you're not an engineer, you're a student.

Also, what kind of engineer qualifies as an engineer?

Materials engineer?
civil engineer?
mechanical engineer?
electrical engineer?
network engineer?
sanitation engineer?
train engineer?

Yup.

I graduated from Michigan Tech this past May with a BS in Computer Engineering. I work as a software engineer for a major defense contractor.

same boat as me, I mean Microsoft says I'm an Engineer in certifications, and my job title has Engineer in it... do those count?
