We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Professional Engineers",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release For he's a jolly young Fellow from
Institution of Mechanical Engineers, which we summarised at the time by saying "Richard Sibbick has become the youngest mechanical engineer to become a Fellow, the highest level of professional recognition from the IMechE".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Simulation environments ease CFD analysis from
CD-adapco: "Any design change made in response to the results of the simulation is reflected almost immediately in the CFD solution".
In June 2007, we covered the news from UK Resource Centre for Women in SET
- take a look at Science company wins gender equality award
which says: "The Diversity and Inclusion award recognises Dupont's work encouraging female participation and progression in the science, engineering and technology (SET) sector".
Take a look also at the news release from Royal Academy of Engineering, Grants support PR for engineering,
as well as CAD helps school robots compete from SolidWorks Corporation,
and CEO appointed to engineering academy from National Instruments.
