The courses must be fully acceptable toward meeting the requirements of an engineering program as described in paragraph A.
4.
Related curriculum -- Successful completion of a curriculum leading to a Bachelor's degree in an appropriate scientific field, e.
g.
, engineering technology, physics, chemistry, architecture, computer science, mathematics, hydrology, or geology, may be accepted in lieu of a bachelor's degree in engineering, provided the applicant has had at least 1 year of professional engineering experience acquired under professional engineering supervision and guidance.
Ordinarily there should be either an established plan of intensive training to develop professional engineering competence, or several years of prior professional engineering-type experience, e.
g.
, in interdisciplinary positions.
(The above examples of related curricula are not all-inclusive.
) NOTE:
Applicants claiming eligibility under the related curriculum paragraph (4) must provide ONE of the two following documents:
(a) Letter signed by the professional engineer who supervised the applicant's training plan.
