The Engineering Profession Act outlines the duties and responsibilities of professional engineers who practice in Nova Scotia. The Engineers Nova Scotia Professional Practice Division enforces the Act.
The Engineering Profession Act defines engineering as "the science and art of designing, investigating, supervising the construction, maintenance or operation of, making specifications, inventories or appraisals of, and consultations or reports on machinery, structures, works, plants, mines, mineral deposits, processes, transportation systems, transmission systems and communication systems or any other part thereof."
