LAC or engineering program?

<p>

For many engineering disciplines, an undergrad BE is needed to become a PE. I went to a grad engineering program, but had to get an MS since I did not have a Bach Eng or I would have had to spend a year taking undergrad engineering courses. For me, it hasn’t mattered although I would probably have more job security better pay etc if I was a PE rather than just a scientist.

Translation needed, please. I understand that PE is “professional engineer,” but please explain needing an M.S. because you didn’t have the bachelor’s in engineering. Is there a masters other than the M.S.?</p>
