The BEng (Hons) Applied Engineering Apprenticeship is a vocational programme with a work- based element. The course aims to provide individuals with the skills required to progress their careers within the sector, to make a valued contribution to their businesses and to the industry as a whole, whilst earning an industrially relevant degree and partial academic requirements for registration as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng), to prepare for a career in industrial engineering.

How You Learn

This course is designed around a set of key principles based on engaging you with the world, collaborating with others, challenging you to think in new ways, and providing you with a supportive environment in which you can thrive. You'll be taught by industry experts and active researchers in a supportive and inclusive environment. We'll also help you to apply your new skills and behaviours to your place of work.

You will learn through six modules delivered per academic year, split into 1 module per 5 week teaching block. The distance learning for each module will take place over 4 weeks (weeks 1-3 & 5) with week 4 containing 3 on-campus study days. Distance learning strategies include online lectures, short video content, guided reading, independent study, tutorial questions with worked solutions, weekly online group sessions, and collaborative online workshops. On-campus strategies focus on hands-on lab or workshop projects, lectures, seminars with peer collaboration, support sessions, and breakout activities

How you are assessed

Your assessments will vary in format with opportunities to choose an area of focus related to your workplace and role.

Applied Learning

All years of the course are structured around applied learning. This links your studies to real-world situations within your workplace.

  • Undertake live project work - develop high quality and sustainable products in line with legislation, compliance testing and regulatory requirements
  • Apply your new skills at work - learn from colleagues and complete tasks independently
  • Network with other professionals both within and outside of your organisation

You will progress through the programme following successful achievement of academic assessments, which address the learning outcomes for each module and allow you to complete End Point Assessment.

 

Entry Requirements

Applications can be from existing employees looking to develop their careers, or new applicants to the employer.

Applicants must:

  • be over 18
  • not be in full time education
  • have the right to abode in the UK
  • be able to achieve the standard by the end of the programme
  • Hold GCSE (or equivalent) Maths and English at level 2 or above (grade 4, or previously C) - If you don't have these yet, you'll need to achieve this level with us in additional study sessions before you take your end-point assessment.

For a student to have the knowledge required to be successful on the programme, we recommend they have prior attainment of at least:

  • Grade B in A level maths
  • An extended diploma in engineering
  • T-level engineering merit
  • An Access Diploma (45 Level 3 credits, including 40 points from 15 credits in Maths).

However, we recognise that applicants with extensive and relevant work experience could also be very successful.

All applicants will be required to take a maths assessment prior to starting the course. If it is deemed that their mathematical ability is not sufficient to access the programme content, they will be required to take a maths short course prior to beginning their apprenticeship studies.
