The short answer is it is important for Engineers, who generally tend to be technically inclined to support this knowledge with legal and commercial insight or business outcomes, Something they will provide in a PMP program.

It depends. For some engineers, like construction and other business critical operations, PMP is definitely a means to an end. It will help them professionally grow from being a normal civil or electrical engineer to a planning engineer where they can estimate and schedule/plan for multi-million dollar projects.

However, for others who already are experienced and have knowledge of project management principles applied on job, they dont need a PMP to prove their worth.

A person's worth is counted by his zeal and interest in his field of expertise and his achievenements/successes, not by the certification or membership to professional group/governing bodies.

Just to make a note, some engineering graduates learn project management as a subject in their academics already. So they dont feel the need to do PMP as they progress professionally.

if we look over engineering studies we only get to learn subjects, it may include sciencs, mathematics, programs, machines soo on.... but we never learn to get management skills. no one teaches us wat is management?, what is leadership ?, how to planning, execution, budgeting etc.. a project. whereas PMP domain teaches us all the knowledge of what is management and a project. If we look forward for a managament future PMP domain is most important.
