WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR? This course in Engineering develops students’ understanding of the underpinning mathematics and scientific principles of engineering. Students gain practical experience in a variety of areas, such as mechanical and electrical engineering, automation systems and manufacturing. WHERE NEXT - POSSIBLE CAREER PROGRESSION? This qualification is aimed at students preparing for roles in engineering, for example engineering technician or engineering operative. Students gain relevant skills and knowledge from studying a range of content focused on electrical/electronic and mechanical disciplines, for example electrical machines and maintenance of mechanical systems. More specific pathways can include: Industrial Product Design / Technician & Maintenance / Civil Engineering / 3 Dimensional Design / Constructional Engineering / Surveying / Interior Design / Architecture / Building Control / Design and Marketing / Product Development / Pathways to Teaching and Lecturing. The qualification has been designed to be the substantive part of a 16 to 19 study programmed for students who want a strong core of sector study and a focus on the wider engineering industry.
Students must have achieved a minimum of five GCSEs grades 9-5 or the equivalent, in Level 2 Cambridge Nationals in Engineering or other Technology qualification, including a grade 5 in GCSE English, grade 5 in Science and a grade 5 in GCSE Mathematic.
- OCR Level 3 Cambridge Technical Certificate in Engineering principles. Students undertake three units, two mandatory and one optional unit. - OCR Level 3 Cambridge Technical Extended Certificate in Engineering principles. Students undertake six units, four mandatory and two optional units.
