18-24 months

This course is designed to equip working engineers with the necessary academic skills to progress in their careers. It is a broad-based programme of study, but addresses fundamental areas which span many disciplines in modern engineering, including aerospace, energy, industrial manufacturing, design, mechatronics and food processing.

The course comprises four units of study per year. Learners are provided with module materials, lectures, tutorials, computer workshops, laboratory tests and research exercises. The course draws students from many international companies and a wide geographical catchment.

The units you will study are:

Year 1

• Maths
• Science
• PLC/Robotics 
• Engineering Design

Year 2

• Electrical Machines
• Project
• Electrical Principles
• Electrical Systems

Students will be assessed through a mixture of phase tests, theoretical and practical assignments, and a work-related project.

The course is delivered through a mixture of classroom-based work and practical work using modern equipment. Students will attend lectures on a day-release basis which will include tutorials, computer workshops, research periods etc. Students are expected to sustain 10 hours per week of self-directed study.

In Year 2, students will also undertake an individual project and group tasks which will enhance development of knowledge and skills

Level 3 qualification in Electrical and/or Electronic Engineering, or equivalent.
