engineering students are at least probably likely to apply for licensure,
unchanged over the past year (68% in 2013), however the proportion
who are de nitely likely has increased slightly versus 2013 (45% vs.
40%). There has also been some declines in terms of students’
knowledge regarding the engineering profession year over year.
Compared to 2013, we notice an increase in those students’ who have a
low level of knowledge regarding licensing and roles within the
profession (8% vs. 2% in 2013), however the vast majority continue to
have a high or moderate level of knowledge (90% vs. 94%).
Speci cally, there has been a directional decline in the proportion of
students who know that a licence is required to perform engineering
work independently (87% vs. 92% in 2013). 6
