The objective of this study was to investigate the information literacy level and self-regulation of prospective engineers. The authors investigated the issues through a descriptive qualitative method. The findings showed that the information literacy of engineering students is strongly correlated with critical thinking ability. Nevertheless, only a weak positive correlation between self-regulation and information literacy of engineering students was revealed. The later part of the article is focused on the Empowering Eight (E8) model of information literacy used as a benchmark to measure information literacy of prospective engineers. To enhance students' information literacy and self-regulation, it is pivotal to enforce creative critical thinking learning and assessment as learning within the engineering student learning process. © 2019 WIETE.
