qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. Your resume
must clearly describe your relevant experience; if qualifying based
on education, your transcripts will be required as part of your
application. Additional information about transcripts is in this
document. Basic Requirement for Engineers: A. Degree: Bachelor's degree (or higher degree) in engineering.
To be acceptable, the program must: (1) lead to a bachelor's degree
(or higher degree) in a school of engineering with at least one
program accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and
Technology (ABET); OR (2) include differential and integral
calculus and courses (more advanced than first-year physics and
chemistry) in five of the following seven areas of engineering
science or physics: (a) statics, dynamics; (b) strength of
materials (stress-strain relationships); (c) fluid mechanics,
hydraulics; (d) thermodynamics; (e) electrical fields and circuits;
(f) nature and properties of materials (relating particle and
aggregate structure to properties); and (g) any other comparable
area of fundamental engineering science or physics, such as optics,
heat transfer, soil mechanics, or electronics. OR B. Combination of Education and Experience: College-level
education, training, and/or technical experience that furnished (1)
a thorough knowledge of the physical and mathematical sciences
underlying engineering, and (2) a good understanding, both
theoretical and practical, of the engineering sciences and
techniques and their applications to one of the branches of
engineering. The adequacy of such background must be demonstrated
by one of the following: Professional registration or licensure - Current registration as
an Engineer Intern (EI), Engineer in Training (EIT), or licensure
as a Professional Engineer (PE) by any State, the District of

through a State Board's eminence provision as a manufacturing
engineer typically would be rated eligible only for manufacturing
engineering positions. Written Test - Evidence of having successfully passed the
Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) examination, or any other written
test required for professional registration, by an engineering
licensure board in the various States, the District of Columbia,
Guam, or Puerto Rico. Specified academic courses - Successful completion of at least

modifications on explosive safety requirements or to determine
appropriate restrictions to ensure worker safety; develop new
methods and approaches to explosive safety analysis of design
concepts; continually evaluates current practices and recommends
process or criteria changes to regulatory proponents (GS-13). Selective Placement Factor: This position requires registration
or licensure in either Professional Engineering or Architecture.
Registration may be in any state, Guam, Puerto Rico, or the
