Annual Business Meeting, the NCEES voted to make the FE examination a discipline-specific examination. As a result of the 1994
vote, the FE examination was developed to test the lower-division subjects of a typical bachelor engineering degree program during
the morning portion of the examination, and to test the upper-division subjects of a typical bachelor engineering degree program
during the afternoon. The lower-division subjects refer to the first 90 semester credit hours (five semesters at 18 credit hours per
semester) of engineering coursework. The upper-division subjects refer to the remainder of the engineering coursework.
Since engineers rely heavily on reference materials, the FE Supplied-Reference Handbook will be made available prior to the
examination. The examinee may use this handbook while preparing for the examination. The handbook contains only reference
formulas and tables; no example questions are included. mercially available books contain worked examples and sample
