Electrical and electronic engineering, whilst being separate disciplines, are becoming more closely related due to the expansion of solid state control and monitoring systems used in high current applications.
This course will expand upon your knowledge of how electricity is generated, transmitted and used to process and store information, the operation and control of common induction motors and generators, and important business principles that a manufacturing company requires in the engineering industry. Plus giving you some of the principles used to model and design practical control systems
This course is validated by Edexcel.
Entry requirementsAll applicants will be invited to an interview to discuss qualifications, experience and any other related issues.
To start this course, you will need to have successfully completed a minimum of one of the following:
- In order to start this course, you will be expected to have successfully completed, or have evidence of working towards and HNC in Electrical and Electronic Engineering with the correct credit mix to allow us to claim your HND.
- Alternatively, we will consider substantive experience in a relevant field.
We also normally require GCSE English langauge and maths at grade C or above: English and maths at Level 2 are essential requirements.
Please note that maths at Level 2 is required for progression onto full degree courses, should you choose to continue your education beyond a HND course.
