SYNOPSIS   

Material Engineers bear the responsibility for the development, characterization, and overall performance enhancement of materials. Given the importance of their work, it is essential that engineers adhere to a set of professional code of conducts to ensure the safety and wellbeing of the public and environment. The Material Engineering Technical Division (MaTD) has developed an IEM Professional Interview Guideline for Materials Engineers seeking to obtain their Professional Engineering status. Recognizing the paramount significance of their work, material engineers are obliged to strictly adhere to a professional code of conduct, ensuring the safety and well-being of the public. These guidelines which is in line with the existing IEM Competency Standard for Professional Interview will provide a framework of integrity, professionalism, and accountability for future engineers. The guideline will focus on the general and specialist engineering knowledge and ability for engineers to apply the theoretical knowledge for engineering solutions in Material engineering.
