Encouraging Computer Engineering Students to Take the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Examination

We describe the experience of pursuing EIT registration and in particular sitting for the FE examination from two perspectives; that from a recent computer engineering graduate who successfully passed the examination, and from the viewpoint of educators in encouraging students to take the examination in their senior year.Strategies for passing the test with a typical computer engineering undergraduate background are suggested as are strategies for encouraging computer engineering students to pursue registration.
