Higher Apprenticeship


in Engineering Environmental Technologies Awarding Body: Plymouth University


Industrial activity in the past half century has created serious ecological problems. The list includes global warming, ozone depletion, loss of biodiversity, natural resource scarcity, air pollution, acid rain and toxic waste, to name just a few.


This Higher Apprenticeship in Engineering Environmental Technologies will train people to specify and advise on better insulated low carbon domestic and industrial accommodation (construction and the built environment) and propose new energy management systems that will reduce energy consumption and improve overall emissions performance (building services engineering).


The knowledge and skills will be developed through cross-sector common modules examining regulations and the law, eco-business practices, the circular economy, calculating the carbon footprint and future green technologies. Apprentices will then study units specific to their chosen pathway.


Engineering Environmental Technologies apprentices will develop competence, knowledge and skills that will allow them to respond to environmental issues. They will understand how engineering is interconnected across many different sectors and how to manage the environmental aspects of their work.


Progression


The Building Services Engineering pathway provides excellent preparation towards professional registration as an Engineering Technician (Eng Tech).


The Construction and Built Environment pathway provides excellent preparation towards professional registration with The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB) as an Associate Member.


Both pathways will be essential preparation for those looking to operate at Levels 5 and 6.


Apprentices on this programme can choose from two pathways:


Building Services Engineering


Job roles within this area include Technical Facilities/ Contract Manager and Technical Business Development Manager.


Construction and the Built Environment


Job roles within this area include Environmental Services Technician at technician level, Environmental Civil Engineer at professional level and Environmental Manager at management level.
