Hi, I would suggest you on this. Before you decide, try to look around whether there is any IR/PR who can guide you in the manufacturing field. He can be your advisor and sign on any documentation when needed. Because you need to have working experience of 3-5 years in order to undertake the PE interview. Why not go for design/construction/consultant field, this should be more valuable.
Btw, you are Electrical/Electronic Engineering?
