What is the difference between an assistant engineer and a **registered junior chemical engineering engineer?
Thread Content
I have a question: I graduated from university 4 years ago, majoring in Applied Chemistry within the Department of Materials and Chemical Engineering. I have just obtained my assistant engineer certificate. What is the difference between an assistant engineer and a **registered junior chemical engineer**? If I want to apply to become a **registered chemical engineer**, should I apply as a junior engineer or an intermediate engineer? Thank you
I want to take both exams. I would like to ask the more experienced folks what materials I need to purchase, as well as when the exams are held each year
Reply to 1# yangliuwb: Registration as an engineer has nothing to do with professional titles. There is no distinction between junior and senior levels for registered chemical engineers; just check the application requirements. One can qualify for a senior professional title after 5 years since graduating with a bachelor’s degree, while you only obtained the title of assistant engineer after 4 years – that’s quite a waste
Reply to 3# Lao Bali: I focused on working hard for the first 3 years, and only in the 4th year did I suddenly remember to apply for the title of assistant engineer. Hehe
"**Registered Junior Chemical Engineer\" May I ask where you heard this title or term?
