Course Overview

Our BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering (Product Design and Development Engineer Degree Apprenticeship) is aimed at those who are committed to developing their career in this challenging and exciting industry. The course has been informed by employers and is accredited by the Institute of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) as fully satisfying the academic requirements for Incorporated Engineer (IEng) and partially fulfilling the academic requirements for Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. This degree incorporates the knowledge, skills and behaviours required by the Level 6 Product Design and Development Engineer Degree Apprenticeship so your staff can learn to work on all stage of product creation, product modification and product componentry.

Your apprentices will spend most of their time in the workplace, with a minimum of six hours per week being devoted to off-the-job training and university learning, which is usually facilitated on a day-release basis. Study at the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 complements learning in the workplace, supporting your apprentices as they learn to understand, enhance, design, and support mechanically-based technology.

Offering a solid foundation in the fundamental scientific and mathematical principles underpinning engineering, this course can prepare apprentices for higher-level responsibilities within your organisation. Our expert team will support them as they develop the ability to bring product concepts to life through a combination of engineering know-how, computer-aided design, testing and manufacturing skill, and engineering management knowledge. We鈥檒l guide your apprentices, helping them gain skills in logical thinking, problem-solving, communication and teamwork, as well as a focus on quality, ethics and safety.

This Degree Apprenticeship allows you to offer structured training, a recognised degree-level qualification, and support towards professional registration with the IMechE, helping you attract the best new talent and retain valued staff through career progression. Integrating study into the normal working week allows apprentices to put their new skills and understanding into practice without delay, benefitting your organisation immediately.

If you鈥檙e looking for undergraduate-level training in this subject area but don鈥檛 work for an employer offering apprenticeships, please see our related courses section for details of study opportunities that don鈥檛 require current employment.

Career Opportunities

The BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering (Product Design and Development Engineer Degree Apprenticeship) programme is designed to meet the Product Design and Development Engineer Degree Apprenticeship Standard (ST0047). Developed by employers, consultants and contractors, the apprenticeship standard underpins a highly relevant qualification and professional development pathway. It prepares apprentices to support product design and development activities ranging from early concept feasibility, computer-aided design and other modelling activities and stages through to final preparation for launch and customers.

In addition to technical knowledge, this programme offers your degree apprentices the opportunity to develop a range of key employability skills. These include the ability to use specialist knowledge creatively and innovatively to solve problems, the ability to produce and interpret technical solutions, the ability to explain design ideas, effective communication (spoken and written), good team working skills, project and time management, and strong decision-making skills.

What can I do with this qualification?

This degree apprenticeship aims to support the development of the next generation of mechanical engineers with strong skills in and knowledge of product design and development. On successful completion of the end point assessment, apprentices will be well prepared to take on demanding roles that require the ability to use engineering techniques to bring new products to life or improve existing products.

Graduate apprentices may choose to continue their mechanical engineering training to achieve the professional standards to become a Chartered Engineer (CEng). For instance, the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 MSc Mechanical Engineering, MSc in Systems Engineering (Mechanical) and Engineering Management or MRes Engineering Management programmes are designed to fully meet the academic requirements set by IMechE and the Engineering Council to achieve Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. These master鈥檚-level courses are also available as Level 7 Degree Apprenticeships.

Graduate apprentices might also choose to pursue further study in a specialist field or research.
Professional Recognition

The 新加坡六合彩开奖直播's BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering holds professional accreditation by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) and uses UK-SPEC learning outcomes designed to meet the academic requirements leading to Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. Please see the Engineering Council UK website for further details of UK-SPEC.

Graduates of our BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering will automatically meet the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements for registration as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng).

After graduation, candidates may have the option to study the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播鈥檚 MSc Mechanical Engineering, MSc in Systems Engineering (Mechanical) and Engineering Management or MRes Engineering Management, all of which are designed to fully meet the academic requirements set by IMechE and the Engineering Council to achieve CEng status.

Teaching & Assessment

Mechanical engineering, product design and product development are diverse and multi-faceted disciplines, so we use a wide range of teaching and learning methods. These are designed to fully engage apprentices, helping them develop the skills, knowledge, self-awareness, and behaviours essential to becoming an Incorporated Engineer (IEng), with particular reference to your organisation and their place within it. Learning focuses on your workplace environment and works towards building the transferable body of knowledge and skills demanded to achieve IEng status and apply this expertise within your organisation. Your apprentices will spend the majority of their time gaining on-the-job knowledge and experience. They will also complete at least six hours per week in off-the-job learning, including studying at the university.

Formally timetabled classes, including lectures, tutorials and tutor-led in-class exercises, along with case studies, laboratories, investigations and assignments, in groups and individually, are designed to help apprentices acquire and develop appropriate concepts, knowledge and skills. Our personal tutor system underpins all our teaching activities and provides one-on-one support, peer support and individual care and attention.

Other teaching methods, such as open-ended projects and design, make and test activities, provide opportunities to develop creativity and innovation skills. These are designed to meet the professional body accreditation requirements and help apprentices apply, assimilate, and integrate their understanding of the course material. Personal study time is required, along with online learning in the form of maintaining an electronic Personal Development Plan (ePDP). As your apprentices progress through the programme, their studies will become less structured and more open-ended in nature as they develop as independent learners.

Your organisation will need to provide each apprentice with a workplace mentor to support their development. They will also benefit from regular visits from a University tutor. The workplace mentor, University tutor and apprentice will work together to create the individual learning plan required to progress the apprentice鈥檚 professional body membership.

For the degree element of this programme, we assess each apprentice鈥檚 individual performance through a strategic blend of project or design reports, examinations, portfolios, presentations, blogs and other assignments. Some assessments contribute to their final module marks, while others are designed to help them identify their strengths and weaknesses, and where they need to seek extra support from course tutors. In addition to the assessments associated with the degree programme, apprentices will undertake an end point assessment at the end of the apprenticeship period.
