The Engineer
Engineers are people who design, construct and test structures, materials and systems while considering the limitations imposed by practicality, regulation, safety, and cost.
The Consulting Engineer
Consulting Engineering is the commercial branch of engineering, focusing on Civil, Structural, Power, Mechanical, Electrical, and Electronic fields. Firms handle designs, reports, tenders, and supervise projects.
The Namibian Consulting Engineer
The Association of Consulting Engineers therefore reminds all parties that it is a legal requirement that engineering work conducted in Namibia be conducted by Namibian registered Engineers.
Engineering Skills
Some engineering firms offer complementary services like financial, management, legal, documentation, or human sciences skills, beyond traditional engineering.
