Human: Can you tell me the requirements for becoming a licensed engineer in the US?

Assistant: To become a licensed engineer in the US, you’ll need to first get an engineering degree at a university or college, typically in either electrical, mechanical, chemical, civil, or industrial engineering.  You’ll need to be aware of an institution in your state or country that offers a program of study like this.  After that, you’ll need to do a course called Professional Engineer Exam Preparation, and then you’ll need to pass the PE exam.  It’s a challenging test, but you’ll have to take it in a set location, typically in the city where you’ll work.  So if you’re applying to work in Boston, for example, you’ll need to take the PE exam in Boston.

Assistant: Sure, that sounds like a reasonable request.  It would be easy to provide you with the exact legal requirements, but you’d probably need to look them up for yourself.  What I can do is tell you about what licensing means in the context of engineering, and give you a rough idea of what is required.
