Bachelor of Science in Engineering Explanation: Alternatively, B.S. in Engineering - there are also specifications as to the area of study such as Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bachelor_of_Science Bachelor of Science A Bachelor of Science (Bc., B.S., BS, B.Sc. or BSc; less commonly, S.B., SB, or Sc.B. from the Latin Scientiæ Baccalaureus) is an undergraduate academic degree awarded for completed courses that generally last three to five years (see below). ... Typical completion period ... Three years Australia, Austria, Barbados, Belgium, Belize, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Canada (Quebec (In this province, it is preceded by two years in college (CEGEP) following grade eleven-thus it takes a total of five years), Cameroon, Cote d'Ivoire, Croatia (mostly three years, sometimes four), Czech Republic (mostly three years, sometimes four), Denmark, England (three or four years with a one-year placement in industry), Estonia, Finland, France, Germany (mostly three years, but can be up to four years), Hong Kong (Start to change to 4-years in 2012), Hungary, Iceland, India (three years for B.Sc. and four years for BE (engineering), Ireland (Ordinary), Israel (for most subjects), Italy, Jamaica (three or four years), Latvia (three or four years), Lebanon (three or four years, five years for Bachelor of Engineering), Malaysia, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, *** Romania,*** Scotland (Ordinary), Singapore (honours degree takes 4 years), Slovakia, South Africa (honours degree takes 4 years), Sweden, Switzerland, Trinidad and Tobago, Uganda (mostly three years, sometimes four), United Arab Emirates, Wales and Zimbabwe. ------------ The Bachelor's degree course of study normally takes four years in the United States, but many students take five years or more to complete their course of study for a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Sciences degree in the United States. It is also possible to complete the course of study for this level degree in less time for motivated students. Also, a five year course of study in the U.S. could correspond to a combined Bachelor's and Master's degree (the 5th year) in the U.S. for those institutions that offer this study option. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2011-08-23 10:14:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- «graduate engineer»(«ingénieur diplômé») - may be a description that is useful. In the United States at least, it will not be understood, though it may be understood in other parts of the English speaking world. It depends on your target audience as well. http://www.cefi.org/plaquet.html To be an engineer in France Engineer : a title and a job ... To be an engineer has a second meaning : earning the engineering degree after rather long training period (usually 5 years after Baccalauréat), with a curriculum that includes a balance of scientific, technical and even economic studies. We stress these two definitions since they sometimes don't overlap within companies : : it is possible to get an engineering job without having an engineering degree ; the career of graduate engineers often leads them to managerial positions where technical aspects may disappear or, at least, be reduced.. Only the title of «graduate engineer»(«ingénieur diplômé») is controlled and protected by law ----- One might use this term or some similar term and add an explanatory note for those countries where this term is not used and where the educational and professional system differs from others. "Engineering graduate" or "graduate of engineering" may be a way around the question. The issue, though, basically comes to the fact that "Engineer" is not a title in the United States, at least, while in other places it may be. |
