COURSE DESCRIPTION

The course is suitable for those who are employed, for example, in systems design, manufacture, maintenance and technical services areas of the mechanical, electronic and electrical engineering industries. It is also a suitable course if you have completed a level 4 qualification and wish to further develop your skills with a view to employment in the engineering industry.

The Higher National Diploma (HND) is the next level of progression for those who have successfully completed the Higher National Certificate. This level 5 course will deliver a sound understanding of the principles in the field of general engineering study, and will give students the opportunity to apply those principles more widely. Through this students will learn to evaluate the appropriateness of different approaches to solving problems; be able to perform effectively in their chosen general engineering field, and will have the qualities necessary for employment in situations requiring the exercise of personal responsibility and decision-making.

PROGRESSION

The Higher Nationals in General Engineering have been developed with career progression and recognition by professional bodies in mind.

Further study elsewhere could be considered to continue on to a full Honours Degree.
