Are you aged between 16-18 and looking to pursue a career in engineering? This full-time course, running 3 days a week, is a broad-based course that covers many areas within the large umbrella of Engineering. Depending on your chosen pathway ( Electrical or Mechanical), the units covered are, Engineering Principles, Delivery of Engineering Processes Safely as a Team, Engineering Product Design and Manufacture, Applied Commercial and Quality Principles in Engineering, Welding Technology, Electronic Devices and Circuits, Computer-Aided Design, Electronic Printed Circuit Board Design and Manufacture, Programmable Logic Controllers, Digital/Analogue Electronics, Microcontroller Systems for Engineers, Industrial Robotics, Calculus to Solve Engineering Problems, A Specialist Engineering Project, Maintenance of Mechanical Systems, and Mechanical Principles. This qualification forms the first year of the BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Electrical/Mechanical Engineering. It combines substantial theoretical learning alongside an opportunity to develop practical work-related skills. It provides a challenging but enjoyable experience for those with an interest in science and maths and satisfaction in practical applications and problem-solving.
If you have recently been in education, the entry requirements are as follows: 5 GCSEs at grade C or above including Mathematics, English Language, and Science. More mature learners may present a more varied profile of achievement and will be given consideration. Other relevant qualifications and/or appropriate industrial experience will also be considered. All students will sit an initial assessment.
The course contains two units which are externally assessed in the first year- Engineering Principles and Engineering Product Design and one in the second year - Microcontroller Systems for Engineers. . In the first year, you'll complete 7 units of which 4 are mandatory and 2 are external. In the second year, you will complete an extra 8 units of which 3 are mandatory and 1 is external. The first year of the course is equivalent to 1.5 A level and the second year is equivalent to 3 A levels.
