The public’s misunderstanding of the engineeringprofession resonates with many aspiring engineering students who enter college with a widevariety of perceptions of the profession. [39] Given this general low level of comprehension by thepublic, it is no surprise that engineering students have a limited understanding of professionallicensure.Can the civil engineering profession depend on accredited engineering programs to providestudents with knowledge about licensure?
