| shikha | Re: Geology Professional Exam The checklist intended to help PG applicants complete all application requirements under Professional Geologist (PG) Examinations by Board for Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors, and Geologists in California is as follows: Qualifying Education (Business and Professions Code § 7841): Graduation with a major in geological sciences from a college or university is required. One must request and submit sealed, certified transcripts for all relevant degrees and course work with the application (including community college transcripts). Unsealed transcripts will not be accepted. Undergraduate study in geological sciences shall count as one-half year of experience, up to a maximum of two years; additionally, graduate study or research counts as one year of experience. Teaching in the geological sciences at a college level is credited year-for-year toward meeting the requirement in this category, provided that total teaching experience includes a minimum of 6 semester units per semester, or equivalent if on the quarter system, of upper division or graduate courses. Credit for undergraduate study, graduate study, and teaching, individually, or in any combination thereof, is in no case exceed a total of 3 years towards meeting the requirement of minimum 5 years of professional geological education and work experience. Qualifying Experience (Business and Professions Code § 7841): One must have a combination of minimum 5 years of geological education and professional geological work experience of a character satisfactory to the Board, demonstrating that one is qualified to assume responsible charge of this work upon licensure as a geologist. Credit is not given for professional geological work until one has completed the education requirements. This experience is gained under the supervision of a licensed Professional Geologist, Professional Geophysicist, or Professional Civil Engineer in this or any other state, or under the supervision of others who, in the opinion of the Board, have the training and experience to have responsible charge of geological work. Professional geological work does not include routine sampling, laboratory work, or geological drafting. Credit is not given for professional geological work experience performed during the same time period when full-time graduate study or research is being done for which educational experience credit is allowed. Part-time graduate study or research and part-time professional geological work experience is prorated and combined on a 12 calendar month basis. |
