About Professional Engineering and the PE License
Earning the PE license is the culmination of an important process, but it’s also the gateway to a career rooted in engagement, responsibility, ethical behavior, and a belief in what’s possible.
Delaware's Engineering Licensing Board
To find out about licensure requirements and dates and locations of licensure exams, contact DAPE Delaware's Engineering licensure board.
In Delaware the Engineering profession is "self regulating." "The Delaware Association of Professional Engineers" (DAPE) is established by law and consists of all the professional engineers licensed in Delaware. These "members" are selected by voting 12 of the 15 members of the "Council" of the DAPE with the remaining 3 being public members appointed by the Governor. The "Council" performs the duties of "The Board of Licensing for Engineers" in other states. Its Objectives are best described by Section 2804 of the Law.
