No, you can't. There are legal restrictions on some titles of
engineering. Nevertheless, one certainly need not be registered to
call themselves an engineer. What's almost always recognized is a
4-year degree or better in engineering from an acredited engineering
program.


In the US you can in most states anyway. There may be a state or two
where this isn't true, but I'm not aware of any.

I have no idea what the law is in Canada or other countries, but in the
USA the "industrial exemption" is pretty much universally excepted.

What are the restrictions you are referring to with respect to titles?
