The Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland (BPEQ) is the state of Queensland’s engineering regulator. Established in 1930, BPEQ’s role is to administer the Professional Engineers Act 2002 (PE Act), regulate the engineering profession, and register engineers to practice.

Engineers registered with BPEQ are given the protected title of registered professional engineer of Queensland (RPEQ). Under the PE Act, any person carrying out a professional engineering service in or for Queensland must be an RPEQ. The RPEQ mark demonstrates an engineer’s qualifications, competence, and experience. By being RPEQ engineers commit themselves to ethical practice and ongoing professional development.

There are currently more than 21,000 RPEQs, across various engineering disciplines, registered by BPEQ.
