Test
HOUSTON, July 11, 2007 – Engineers planning to take state
exams this October in preparation for obtaining their professional
licenses can enroll in review courses offered by the University
of Houston Cullen College of Engineering.
The Cullen College of Engineering offers review courses to prepare
engineers for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) and the Principles
and Practice of Engineering (PE/P&P) examinations. Registration
deadline for each course is Wednesday, Aug 8.
The FE review course will be Tuesday and Thursday evenings from
Aug. 23 through Oct. 11. The Mechanical Engineering (PE/P&P)
review course will be Monday and Wednesday evenings from Aug. 20
through Oct. 10. Each of the 15 two-hour sessions is from 7:15 to
9:15 p.m.
A registration form, fee schedule and additional information are

Each non-credit review course will present material typical of
the particular test and will be taught by faculty and industry experts.
Classes will be conducted at the UH main campus.
The FE exam is the first step an engineering student or graduate
must take to become a professional engineer. The PE/P&P exam
is a test offered in a specific discipline of engineering and is
taken after a prescribed number of years of engineering practice.
Licensing as a professional engineer protects the public by ensuring
that engineers have met certain standards of competency in education.
