Near the end of my degree program in computer engineering (similar to electrical engineering except the advanced classes focus more on logic circuits than electrical ones)... I took a test called the Fundamentals of Engineering (or EIT). The rule goes something along the lines of this.. if you are responsible for the engineering of a particular product that has a certain amount of risk to the lives of people who use it.. then you must have a license. To get that license you have to pass the FE/EIT exam and the Professional Engineer (PE) exam. I've passed the FE/EIT, but currently have no need for the PE for my job title to include 'engineer'.
