This course is normally studied part-time (one day) over two years, but there is the option to study full-time (two days) over one year. It is designed for those looking to develop a career in mechanical engineering, with the emphasis on applying mechanical theory to practical situations. You will study in state-of-the art engineering facilities, with industry-standard equipment.
Mechanical engineers research, develop and manage projects devising innovative solutions in design and manufacture. The course is designed to provide the knowledge and understanding of how advanced and innovative engineering underpins the mechanical design, advanced manufacturing and technical service areas of the industry. This course can also form the academic part of a Higher Apprenticeship.
