Engineering Foundation Degrees

Students

The part-time Foundation Degrees, offered in partnership with (and validated by) The University of the West of England (UWE), are intended for those who have, or wish to pursue, a career in Engineering.

They provide the opportunity for individuals from a wide range of backgrounds to achieve their full academic potential through Higher Education study in a local college environment.

Successful completion of the course may allow progression onto several related BSc or BEng degrees at UWE.

Our aim is to provide you with the relevant professional skills and knowledge employers tell us they need so that you can embark on your future career in engineering with confidence.

We offer the following Foundation Degree pathways:

• Mechanical Engineering
• Mechatronics
• Electronic and Computer Systems Engineering

An option to choose Mechatronics will be considered at the start of year 2.
