The Degree Apprenticeship in Mechanical Design offers an innovative way of training the next generation of skilled industry workers. Apprentices work as part of a team and gain in-depth knowledge and skills in mechanical engineering design. Apprentices are critical thinkers and independent learners, able to solve complex design and engineering related problems individually and in teams. Validated by Bournemouth University, accredited by the Institution of Engineering Designers (IED) and delivered by Bournemouth & Poole College, the Apprenticeship has high industrial relevance and close ties with the requirements of local industry. Apprentices will work on ‘live’ projects and assignments related to and based on real experiences within their organisation.

Course programme
On this six year course, apprentices will pass through four major stages. The first two years will be spent studying for a Level 4 Higher National Certificate (HNC) qualification, before completing a Level 5 Foundation Degree (FdEng) in the third year. To complete the full Degree (BEng), the apprentice will complete two further years of study. Upon completion, not only will they have a range of skills tailored to business needs, but they will also have six years of vital industry experience. The final year also involves preparation for the end point assessment.
