You don't have to have an engineering degeree to engineer a part or process; it's also a method of development. If a person's profession requires them to design a product to fulfill certain criteria while folling x and y constraints, isn't that engineering? And I believe I'm the IT (industrial technology, not information technology) major Wes was refering to. I have taken classes that could also be offered in Industrial, Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Chemical Engineering programs.
And yes, my job title will have the word "engineer" in it. After taking 4 years of metalcasting classes I think I deserve to be called a foundry engineer.
