I don't think that a formal Degree in Engineering is necessary for you to qualify as an Engineer.
While I do hold a Degree, I have met many wonderful Engineers that were self-taught. Likewise, I've met a number of people with Engineering Degrees ... They couldn't figure out which end of a lightbulb to put into the socket.

Iam a recent EE graduate however it will be another 3-4 years before i am a licensed engineer (P.Eng). I guess the definition of engineer depends more on the qualification then the paper. BTW the pointy end of the bulbs goes into the screw-thing-a-ma-bob if i remember correctly🙂
No, I'm not an engineer, I'm a student of er... dentistry.
I would suspect that most of the members here aren't engineers at all, but they won't bother to post here to say they aren't.

I'm not
Well I used to be a technician about 20 years ago now I'm a sales guy.
I am perceived by my family, relatives and friends to have an engineering bent (this means that I end up fixing their stuff) ....does that count??
I guess I'm not.....sigh🙁

Well, almost the same here... I' m an EE since 1990, but I' ve been a sales guy for approx. 10 yrs. now...
Still, I' m the "free repairman" around

Carondimonio,
😀 ; good call. If it does not fit, get a bigger hammer. I have a 12lb sledge in my garage if you need to borrow it.
There is such job title as sales engineer.

Gengis,
I guess I' ll take you on your kind offer...😀 😀 😀

P.S.: Yes, I' m a sales engineer...

me, while still at school as a machinist in holidays since 1997, now a furniture maker and finishing off a degree, building a hillclimb car in my spare time, guess that counts
I have a degree in physics. Although I have been working as a Mechanical Engineer for the past 7 years. I guess that counts.

That's easy:How do you define engineer? Is a formal qualification required?
If you know how to perform a Laplace transform and how to use it, then you are an engineer.
p.s. I am an EE.
I know Laplace and have a B.Sc.EE from 2003 😉.
But best of all I'm a trained elektronics mechanic since 1995.
