Engineering Access to Higher Education Diploma

Course Code:
AC3MENG1

What will I learn?
The Access to HE Diploma in Engineering is being offered at Tottenham Centre during day time only. It is intended that learners will study full-time for a one-year period. The Access to HE Diploma in Engineering will focus on equipping the learners with the engineering skills and theoretical knowledge required to succeed at Higher Education. This programme has been designed to focus not only on the maths, physics and engineering units but will emphasise development of the more fundamental skills of good study practices, confidence building and research skills, which will enable learners to become independent and therefore more likely to succeed on an engineering course at university. We have been conscious to place the learner at the centre of the programme and the units chosen can equip the learner to study from a range of engineering courses at higher education.

How will I be taught?
Teaching will include a range of activities such as group activities, discussion, surveying college buildings, and practical applications of engineering.

How will I be assessed?
Assessment is portfolio based marked by teachers and validated by the exam board. There are three exams in December and June.

What could I do next?
You could progress to study engineering at higher education.
