If were going to exclued people who have been into drugs at some point in their life, then we will be excluding some the most creative, and in some aspects the most intelligent, members of our species from a profession that should embrace such. We will also be denying people who have a high neuro-physiological need for stimulation and reward from the very thing that will correct their desire for drug taking behavior. Our laws are sometimes based in evolutionary ignorance.
1I don't know, but I suspect that the answer is NO. Check with the professional Board which licenses Veterinarians. Until I retired, I was a Licensed Private Investigator, and we could not be licensed, having only a misdemeanor, and my brother is a Licensed Professional Engineer, and his wife a Licensed Professional Nurse, and they too cannot be licensed with criminal misdemeanor convictions, and a Texas concealed handgun license cannot be obtained unless a MINOR misdemeanor conviction is greater than five years old, so I suspect that a felony conviction knocks one out of obtaining any professonal license in Texas.

Yes, a felon can become a licensed electrical engineer, but it may vary by state and the specifics of the conviction. Many states require applicants for licensure to disclose any felony convictions, and each case is evaluated individually. Factors such as the nature of the crime, time elapsed since the conviction, and evidence of rehabilitation can influence the decision. It is advisable for individuals to check with their state’s licensing board for specific requirements and guidelines.

If you have not been convicted, you are NOT a felon.
Usually not but this would clearly be identified within a state's department of business regulation of professional standards and requirements. In Rhode Island, they can not become a licensed real estate agent with a felony conviction.
