Course summary

Most learners on the BTEC Level 3 programme work towards a BTEC Level 3 Foundation Diploma in year one and progress onto an extended Diploma in year two. The emphasis is on learning theories, concepts and practices within engineering that will provide knowledge and understanding to enable the learner to analyse, solve and evaluate real engineering problems. Learners then benefit from a nationally recognised Level 3 qualification which carries UCAS points for University entry or contributes to the framework of an apprenticeship in Engineering. In this study programme you will apply the principles and knowledge on how to successfully work in Engineering that will include, but not be limited to: - Product Design & Manufacture - Calculus - Computer-Aided Design - Electronics - Metallic material - Engineering process - Engineering principles

Entry requirements

You will need to have 4 GCSEs at grade 9 – 4 (A - C) to include Maths, or successful completion of a full Level 2 qualification. In addition you will need to have a successful interview that shows interests and hobbies related to the world of Engineering.

How you'll be assessed

Assessment will take place via assignments set throughout the year. Each unit studied (9) will have approximately 3 assignments. Assignments will carry success criteria of Pass, Merit and Distinction grades.
