HTQ - HNC in Mechanical Engineering

This two-year Higher Technical Qualification in Mechanical Engineering suits people who want to start or advance a career in mechanical engineering. Employers helped shape the course, which blends core engineering principles with specialised mechanical units. Learning is hands-on and built around practical projects, so skills can be used straight away in the workplace. The course spans two years and gives learners a grounding that employers value. Learners study a broad range of engineering topics and use software including Matlab, MultiSim and AutoCAD Inventor. Industry partners shaped the modules, which aim at jobs, apprenticeships or further study. The specialist team advises on top-up degree options after completion. Planned delivery may switch to remote learning if circumstances require it, and any change would be communicated in advance.
