Greetings
After much avoidance I've decided to start a blog. Ok, maybe the fact that one of my mentors told me that applying for a Professional Engineer license requires submitting narratives about project design almost exactly like a blog had something to do with it. But I'd never admit to something like that, doesn't it sound unlikely to you too?
I've formally been an Engineer-in-Training since passing the FE exam before receiving my BS in EE back in May 2002, but I haven't actually done much toward obtaining a license as a Professional Engineer. Time for that to change, and right now I have a golden opportunity to start preparing -- a project of moderate scope on which I will be doing the lion's share of the work but undergo review by a PE. So I asked this PE what steps he would recommend to make sure I can include this work in my portfolio and here we are. So without further ado, let's introduce the project.
