Attention engineers...What type are you and why?

[MikeDubreuil]

I'll make this my coming out thread...
After 6 years in FIRST, 3 in high school and 3 in college - I am now an engineer. I will also officially change my status on the forum

I graduated on August 20th, 2005 from Wentworth Institute of Technology with a degree in Computer Engineering Technology. Today, I work as an Associate Software Engineer at Textron Systems. I chose software engineering because I love the software aspect of control systems.

PE is an acronym for Professional Engineer. It's a license than you can get to certify yourself in a particular state as a qualified engineer.
