NCEES seeks agricultural and biological engineers’ professional expertise and advice

NCEES is currently seeking licensed agricultural and biological engineers to participate in a professional activities and knowledge study, or PAKS, for the PE Agricultural and Biological Engineering exam. The results of this online survey will be used to update specifications for the exam, which is used throughout the United States for licensing purposes.

NCEES requires a cross section of licensed professional engineers practicing agricultural and biological engineering—including those working in industry, consulting, the public sector, and academia—to complete an online survey about the tasks and knowledge required of a licensed agricultural or biological engineer with four to six years of experience to practice in a manner that safeguards the health, safety, and welfare of the public. The survey can be completed in approximately 40 minutes.

“These studies help NCEES ensure its licensing exams remain relevant to current professional practice,” explained Director of Exam Services Tim Miller, P.E. “The value of this PAKS depends on the number of people who participate, so NCEES is eager to get input from professional engineers across all areas of agricultural and biological engineering.”

Click here to access and complete the online survey before the deadline of March 26, 2020.
