5 3. PROGRAMME OVERVIEW Blackpool and the Fylde College remains committed to providing a highly responsive curriculum that is employment and futurefocused and will enable students to develop the essential knowledge and skills that will prepare them for future success in work and life. The General Engineering course was initially developed along with EDF Energy in order to meet requirements for an all-round programme of study for their apprentices and staff who attend the college each year. The General Engineering Curriculum has a compulsory core that focuses on Analytical methods, Engineering Science and Project Design, Implementation and Evaluation. The remaining modules selected by the college allow students to develop in both mechanical and electrical engineering. These include Fluid Mechanics, Machine Dynamics, Electrical Power and Electrical & Electronic Principles. All Higher National Certificate (HNC) programmes within the Curriculum Area of Engineering aim to enable the students to develop a range of skills and techniques, personal qualities and attributes essential for successful performance in working life and equip individuals with knowledge, understanding and skills in preparation for a range of technical and management careers in mechanical, electronic and electrical engineering or for progression to an undergraduate degree or further professional qualification in engineering, or a related area. This programme provides local delivery either full-time (two days per week) or part-time (one day per week) with course content to be matched to local needs, offering opportunities to students who would otherwise find it difficult or even impossible to access an appropriate degree level course. Blackpool and the Fylde College s delivery and assessment of courses are tailored to the needs of the local, regional and national population. The HNC develops higher level general engineering skills in a technological and management context thereby providing opportunities for students to develop a range of skills, techniques and attributes essential for successful performance and progression in working life. By the end of the programme students will have developed the practical performance skills and key academic knowledge required to enable progression to further study or pursue a successful career within the mechanical, electronic and electrical engineering based industry spectrum. 4. ADMISSION CRITERIA Admission to level 4 (HNC) would normally be on the basis of the applicant possessing a minimum of 120 UCAS points (excluding Functional Skills) or above in an appropriate discipline. In order to meet this entry requirement an applicant would need, for example: A Levels (Grade C or above) which must be appropriate for the intended course of study An Engineering based Level 3 Diploma (M, P, P) L3 Extended Diploma (P, P, P,) A student must have studied mathematics up to an equivalent of level 3, or have sufficient recent maths experience. We also welcome applications from those with substantial work experience in engineering in lieu of the minimum entry requirements.
6 5. PROGRESSION OPPORTUNITIES Upon completion of the Level 4 HNC in General Engineering students can choose to progress onto further study at Blackpool & The Fylde College. We currently offer two degree courses accredited by Lancaster University: B.Eng. (Hons) in Mechanical and Production Engineering B.Eng. (Hons) in Mechatronics Both of which extend upon the knowledge acquired at Level 4, but choice of programme depends upon the student s preference for either the mechanical or electrical engineering route. Alternative progression is onto either a Level 4 or Level 5 Foundation Degree or onto another honours degree programme, depending on the match of the units from this General Engineering HNC Programme. Many students choose to use their HNC qualification to gain employment at technician, supervisor or possibly management levels at local, national or international companies in the engineering sector. 6. PROGRAMME AIMS Edexcel BTEC Higher Nationals are designed to provide a specialist vocational programme, linked to professional body requirements and National Occupational Standards where appropriate. They offer a strong, sector-related emphasis on practical skills development alongside the development of requisite knowledge and understanding. The qualifications provide a thorough grounding in the key concepts and practical skills required in their sector and their national recognition by employers allows direct progression to employment. Specifically this programme aims: to develop a range of skills and techniques, personal qualities and attributes essential for successful performance in working life and thereby enable learners to make an immediate contribution to employment at the appropriate professional level to prepare for a range of technical and management careers in engineering to provide specialist studies relevant to individual vocations and professions in which students are working or intend to seek employment in mechanical or electrical engineering and its related industries to enable progression to or counting towards an undergraduate degree or further professional qualification in engineering to provide a significant engineering base for progression to incorporated engineer level. 7. PROGRAMME OUTCOMES On completing the programme students will be able to: analyse, synthesise and summarise information critically read and use appropriate literature with a full and critical understanding think independently, solve problems and devise innovative solutions take responsibility for their own learning and recognise their own learning style apply subject knowledge and understanding to address familiar and unfamiliar problems design, plan, conduct and report on investigations use their knowledge, understanding and skills to evaluate and formulate evidence-based arguments critically and identify solutions to clearly defined problems of a general routine nature communicate the results of their study and other work accurately and reliably using a range of specialist techniques identify and address their own major learning needs within defined contexts and to undertake guided further learning in new areas apply their subject-related and transferable skills in contexts where the scope of the task and the criteria for decisions
7 8. PROGRAMME CONTENT All Higher Education programmes delivered at Blackpool and The Fylde College consist of modules. A module is a coherent unit of subject material, which is complete with its own learning outcomes and assessments. More detailed information on module content is available in the programme handbook. Higher National Certificate (HNC) FHEQ Level 4 Award Part-time study: 18 Months Full-time study: 12 months A Higher National Certificate may be awarded following the successful completion of the following modules: Module Code Level Title Credits 01 4 Analytical Methods for Engineers 02 4 Engineering Science 03 5 Project Design, Implementation and Evaluation Further Analytical Methods for Engineers 41 4 Fluid Mechanics 60 4 Dynamics of Machines 63 4 Electrical Power 05 5 Electrical & Electronic Principles
8 9. AN OVERVIEW OF TEACHING, LEARNING & ASSESSMENT The course is taught at the Bispham campus of Blackpool and the Fylde College where students will have the opportunity to experience high quality teaching and learning facilities, including the new Advanced Technology Centre which opened in September 20. The assessment on the programme is 100% through coursework assignments. Modules are delivered and assessed with three to four assignments per module which progressively evidence your achievement against the learning outcomes. Assignments can be a mix of analysis, calculation, experimental reports and essays which are set with clearly defined learning outcomes and assessment criteria to achieve a level of pass, merit or distinction. Assignments are designed not just to test what you know, but to help you develop your knowledge, skills and confidence. A number of teaching methods are employed by the college which will include lectures, computer based sessions, academic workshops and practical sessions. The style of lecturing varies depending on the member of staff and the material to be covered. Some lectures include lots of group participation and others take a more traditional style, giving a coherent and lucid explanation of a complex theory. The college offers support for all Higher Education students in the form of our Higher Education Learning Mentors who provide one-to-one support and advice on the techniques you need to be a successful student. This can include help with: returning to education as a mature student; essay writing; presentation skills; editing and web skills; and research skills. You will have a designated programme leader throughout your studies who is an academic member of staff who will provide additional academic and pastoral support. You can meet with your tutor throughout the year, as well as one-to-one progress meetings each semester. This HNC is fully supported by an interactive Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), Moodle, where additional course materials, supplementary activities and other related course information are made available. This is commonly used by students during or after sessions to consolidate and support learning. During your course, you'll go on to develop the independence, creativity and excellent communication skills that we know employers look for in successful graduates. 10. OPPORTUNITIES FOR WORK BASED & PLACEMENT LEARNING Although there is no formal work placement requirement on the HNC in General Engineering, the programme is designed to enable students to experience real world vocational activities, problems and assignments by utilising live briefs and industry specific problems during some specialist modules.
