Project Engineer is responsible from concept design/engineering till final commissioning & handover of project but site engineer is responsible primarily for site activities looking at site with the collaboration of contractors to mobilize manpower for construction, site inspection, supervision & to monitor work progress & report their manager, who may be sitting in head office or at site. We can say, A project engineer may be handling role of site engineer as well depending upon organization structure but site engineer role is limited & it is for construction & supervision only.
