What is the FE Exam?

The Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam is the first step towards becoming a licensed Professional Engineer (PE). It assesses your understanding of fundamental engineering principles across various disciplines. Passing demonstrates your competency and commitment to the profession. Benefits of Taking the FE Exam:

  • Increase your job competitiveness: Stand out from other applicants by demonstrating your commitment to the profession.
  •  Gain Valuable Certification: Gain a valuable credential for your resume, showcasing technical proficiency.
  •  Become eligible for licensure: Passing the FE Exam is a prerequisite for obtaining your PE license, essential for many engineering careers.
  •  Boost your confidence: Successfully passing the FE Exam provides a sense of accomplishment and validates your knowledge.

Am I Ready to Take the FE Exam?

Are you nearing graduation with an engineering degree? Consider taking the FE Exam BEFORE graduation. The knowledge gained during your studies is still fresh, increasing your chances of success. Resources and study materials are readily available to help you prepare effectively. We have heard time and time again from PE candidates that waiting to take the exam after graduation can be difficult. The longer you wait, the more likely you are to forget some of the key concepts tested on the exam, and you may find it challenging to carve out dedicated study time with a full-time job. How to Prepare for the FE Exam:

  • Review your coursework.
  •  Utilize practice exams.
  •  Seek guidance from professors.
  •  Explore online resources.
