Study Guide for the Professional Licensure of Mining and Mineral Processing Engineers, 8th Edition

Prepare for your Professional Engineer exam with this 8th edition of SME’s study guide.

This handy workbook lets you know what to expect and provides the opportunity to practice your test-taking skills. The text covers what licensing can do for you, outlines the engineering licensure process, highlights the steps to licensure, summarizes the application process, and provides test-taking strategies specific to the PE exam. The text also includes a chapter on ethics for professional engineers and details the rules of professional conduct from the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES). The Study Guide provides the important references that should be studied for the PE exam as well as a list of other helpful resources. Perhaps the most useful element is a sample test, including the solutions, that is similar in content and format to the actual Principles and Practice of Engineering licensure exam. Although the practice exam cannot include all the possible subject matter that may appear on the actual exam, you’ll find it beneficial to practice answering the types of questions that will appear on the test.

The Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration (SME) advances the worldwide mining and minerals community through information exchange and professional development. SME plays a central role in the licensure process for professional engineers through its Professional Engineers Exam Committee and its affiliation with NCEES.
