You will develop an understanding of a broad range of issues relevant to the sector, including:

  • Working within the Engineering and Manufacturing Sectors – an understanding of how materials, conditions and context influence design processes and products
    • Essential mathematics for engineering and manufacturing – a knowledge and understanding of mathematics including standard matrices and determinants and standard trigonometry
    • Materials and their properties – understanding material processing techniques and their effects on materials and material quality, the condition of materials, how these are managed, and materials testing methods and techniques
    • Business, commercial and financial awareness - basic commercial principles including commercial priorities and markets, customers/clients/partners and resource allocation.

In your first year, you will study one common core. In your second year, you will complete at least one specialised course which will help you gain skills for the engineering path you wish to pursue. You can choose from: Design and Development (Mechanical Engineering), Manufacturing, Processing and Control (Composites) or Maintenance, Installation and Repair (Light Vehicle and Electric Vehicles).

How will the course be assessed?

The common core is assessed by two external exams and an employer set project. In year two you will study the occupational competency element and complete an industry standard practical synoptic assessment.

What future study opportunities and careers are there?

You could enter employment in the area of engineering that you found was best suited to your skillset while completing the T Level, including working with aerospace engineering, motor/vehicle engineering, or marine engineering, including many more. Alternatively, you could choose to develop your skills further through completing higher education at University Centre Weston. ###What do I do next?
