Becoming a licensed professional engineer requires a degree and four years of supervised practical experience. Recent surveys show 60% of Ontario engineering graduates are not able to obtain the required experience to become licensed. This robs Ontario from the valuable economic drivers of applied science and engineering. Much of this investment in this human resource is diminished. The applied science and engineering professions requires a two year fully funded internship program similar to what the medical profession enjoys. We ask for your support to make this happen.
