All applicants will normally require 4 GCSE passes Grade C+ or equivalent, including maths and English or their Level 2 equivalents.
Course Information:
The course is designed to support those interested in developing careers in production / maintenance engineering and related technologies within the
manufacturing industry and has been designed in collaboration with local manufacturing employers and the University of Bath.
Often companies will support employees who wish to study for a Foundation Degree whilst they work.
Applicants may be admitted to the programme because of knowledge and skills gained through experience rather than formal qualifications. The interview process will give you an opportunity to show how you have the knowledge and skills equivalent to those you would gain through a Level 3 qualification.
These include
(within an engineering, scientific or technology-related field): • Using your initiative to direct your own work
• Managing your time and meeting deadlines
• Solving unfamiliar problems using a range of different approaches
• Presenting relevant information to others accurately both verbally and in writing • An appropriate level of skills in mathematics.
