What is Manufacturing Engineering? It’s about using science and maths to solve real-world problems and create innovative solutions. In essence, engineering is the art of applying scientific and mathematical principles to develop efficient and effective solutions to everyday problems. Why study Manufacturing Engineering? Contrary to common understanding, the Engineering sector continues to suffer from a skills gap and needs to keep up with rapidly developing technologies. BTEC Engineering is designed to give new entrants to the engineering sector the underpinning knowledge and specific skills needed to meet the needs of modern manufacturing Engineering industries.
Normal college entry requirements (5 grade 4s or above, including English Language and mathematics) plus grade 5-5 in Trilogy Science or grade 5 in separate science – Physics. Also, a grade 5 in Maths.
The course consists of 15 units: 3 are externally assessed the rest are internally assessed. Externally assessed units: • Unit 1: Engineering Principals. • Unit 3: Engineering product design and manufacture. • Unit 6: Microcontrollers systems for engineers. Internally assessed units: • Unit 2: Delivery of engineering processes safely as a team. • Unit 4: Applied commercial and quality principles in engineering. • Unit 5: Specialist Engineering project. • Unit 7: Calculus to solve Engineering problems. • Unit 10: Computer aided design in engineering. • Unit 13: Welding technology. • Unit 39: Modern manufacturing system. • Unit 41: Manufacturing secondary machining processes. • Unit 42: Manufacturing primary forming processes. • Unit 44: Fabrication manufacturing processes. • Unit 45: Additive manufacturing processes. • Unit 47: Composites manufacture and repair processes.
