In order to qualify, you must meet the education requirements described below:
To Qualify at the GS-03grade level, you must have successfully completed 1 academic year (30 semester hours/45 quarter hours in an accredited college or university) of post high school study in engineering. This education must lead to at least bachelor's degree in engineering.(Transcripts must be attached with your application package). To Qualify at the GS-04 grade level, you must have successfully completed 2 academic years (60 semester hours/90 quarter hours in an accredited college or university) of post high school study in engineering. This education must lead to least a bachelor's degree in engineering. (Transcripts must be attached with your application package). The required education must lead to a bachelor's degree with specialization in or directly related to the field in which the student trainees will receive training on the job.

Directly Related Degree Programs:
Engineering. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience. Your resume must clearly describe your relevant education and experience. Additional information about transcripts is in this document. For qualification purposes, an academic year is computed as follows:
At the undergraduate level, successfully completed education that has not led to possession of a degree is credited based on its relationship to 120 semester hours or 180 quarter hours. For example, 30 semester hours or 45 quarter hours is comparable to 1 year of undergraduate education. Four years of progressive study or 120 semester hours meets the degree requirements. Additional credit cannot be given for duplicate course work. For study at a business or technical school, 36 weeks of study (20
classroom hours per week) is comparable to 1 academic year above high school. An academic year of graduate education is considered to be the number of credit hours that the school attended has determined to represent 1 academic year of full-time study. This determination is made based on normal course loads for a full year of study in the graduate program. If that information cannot be obtained from the school, 18 semester hours or 27 quarter hours should be considered as satisfying the 1 year of full-time study requirement. Part-time graduate education is creditable in accordance with its relationship to a year of full-time study at the school attended. When academic credit is expressed in contract months, units, or other terms that differ from conventional semester or quarter hours, it is the responsibility of the applicant to provide an interpretation of such credits from the appropriate institution in order to equate them to the semester or quarter hours specified in the standard. NOTE:
If your college, vocational, trade, technical or high schools' definition of academic year differs from above, you must submit proof of this difference (e.g., copy of course catalog that defines an academic year). Absent this documentation, you will screened for academic qualifications based on the academic hours as defined in the bullets above.
Estimated Salary: $20 to $28 per hour based on qualifications.
