PEC Initiative “Pathway to Practice”

Engineer Waseem Nazir, the Chairman of the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC), recently made a significant commitment to support fresh engineering graduates by ensuring that they receive their professional titles from day one of their graduation. This pledge was made during the opening ceremony of a new initiative called “Gateway to Practice,” which aims to facilitate the transition of graduates into the professional engineering field.

As part of this initiative, the PEC has established a permanent resource center known as the PEC Desk at the University of Engineering & Technology (UET) in Lahore. This dedicated facility is designed to assist graduates in navigating the registration process required to obtain their engineering licenses. The PEC Desk will provide essential support and guidance, helping graduates understand the steps they need to take to become licensed professionals.

Obtaining a professional engineering license is a crucial milestone for graduates, as it not only validates their qualifications but also enhances their career prospects in the engineering sector. By streamlining and improving access to this licensure process, the PEC aims to empower new engineers, enabling them to embark on their careers with the necessary credentials and confidence.
