Why take a Fundamentals (FE) exam?
You must pass the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination to pursue a professional license. Although chemical engineers are not required to take the FE exam, it may be an asset to certain students. If you plan to work in environmental consulting, own your own company, or need a boost because of a low GPA, it may be a good idea for you to take the exam. Speak to an advisor to find out if this exam is right for you.
