About

The North Dakota State Board of Registration for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors was created by the state legislature. The Board’s primary job is to protect the public by making sure that every engineer and land surveyor they license is qualified. To see everything the Board does, check out their Strategic Plan.

 

With every action the Board takes, the mission statement is forefront and considered at all times;

 

“To safeguard life, health, and property and to protect the public welfare.”

 

All Board meetings are open to the public. We welcome and encourage everyone to attend. You do not need to let us know in advance or schedule your attendance. However, if you do let us know, we’ll be able to make sure there is enough room to make everyone comfortable. If the meeting is a teleconference, please call us and we’ll tell you the nearest available location.
