of access to clean drinking water, education,
good health and other basic services of life

have increased with globalization

DEVELOPING PROCEDURES FOR THE INTERNATIONAL LICENSING OF
PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS

As engineering becomes more globalized, the need to consider
the professional engineer’s responsibility to society is increasing.

Issues related to engineering ethics that need to be discussed and
regulated on a global scale include business ethics and individual
professional ethics related to engineering.

Prepared By: Muhammad Nur Azuan bin Kamaruddin, 12
Grad.Eng. (BEM)

The challenge for professional organizations is to develop a global
code of ethics that can apply to a variety of professions in the
science and technology field.

The licensing process for professional engineers can vary
considerably from country to country

Prepared By: Muhammad Nur Azuan bin Kamaruddin, 13
Grad.Eng. (BEM)

Need effort to recognize the validity of engineering degrees
obtained from other countries and to increase the ability of
engineers to practice in other countries

The development of international licensing procedures will be
met with many obstacles due to the many differences or lack of
licensing procedures for professional engineers between countries.

THE DEVELOPMENT AND ENFORCEMENT OF INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS

Lack of international standards related to the field of engineering 15

“international standardization is well-established for many
technologies in such diverse fields as information processing and
communications, textiles, packaging, distribution of goods, energy
production and utilization, shipbuilding, and banking and financial
services”

Prepared By: Muhammad Nur Azuan bin Kamaruddin,
Grad.Eng. (BEM)

Members of ISO are from over 140 countries and organizations that
develop national standards

These standards are important to enhance the trade of services and
products, to strengthen public and private partnerships within
countries around the world and to promote global health and safety.
