Question Can I get an Engineer-in-Training (EIT) FE certification in Georgia with a US aviation maintenance degree and a foreign electrical engineering degree?
BS Aviation Maintenance, from a US school (graduated 2022)
BS Electrical Engineering, from a university outside the US (graduated 2024)
I'm planning to take the FE Electrical and Computer exam and eventually get licensed in Georgia. My education for Aviation maintenance is already verified in my NCEES account. From my research, though, I found that passing the exam doesn't guarantee a state will approve my certification, since my degrees may not match the standard requirements.
Has anyone been through this with a similar background? Specifically:
Should I contact the Georgia board before taking the exam?
Did anyone with a foreign or non-ABET degree get EIT certified in Georgia?
