Pearson BTEC Level 5 Higher National Diploma in Electrical and Electronic Engineeringfor England is a rigorous specialist vocational programme, linked to professional body requirements and with a strong work related emphasis. The programme offers professional level teaching in electrical electronic engineering using simulation and practical activities to reinforce learning. At Level 4 students develop a broad knowledge and awareness of key aspects of the electrical electronic engineering through three core and 5 specialist units. CoreUnit 4001: Engineering Design Unit 4002: Engineering MathsUnit 4004: Managing a Professional Engineering Project (Pearson-set)SpecialistUnit 4014: Production Engineering for ManufactureUnit 4015: Automation, Robotics and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)Unit 4017: Quality and Process ImprovementUnit 4019: Electrical and Electronic PrinciplesUnit 4021: Electrical Machines Level 5 students develop greater academic and management skills through 2 core units and 6 specialist units. CoreUnit 5002: Professional Engineering Management (Pearson-set)Unit 5006: Further Mathematics SpecialistUnit 5009: Further Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)Unit 5010: Further Electrical Machines and DrivesUnit 5011: Industrial Power, Electronics and StorageUnit 5013: Embedded SystemsUnit 5019: Further Electrical, Electronic and Digital PrinciplesUnit 5020: Utilisation of Electrical PowerGraduates successfully completing the course will be able to demonstrate a sound knowledge of the concepts of engineering and the nature of the underpinning concepts of engineering. They will be able to communicate accurately and appropriately, and they will have the qualities of personal responsibility needed for employment. This pathway is linked to Professional Body standards (where appropriate) and can provide progression towards professional status or entry to the later stages of an appropriate degree.At Level 5 students continue to build on the essential skills, knowledge and techniques necessary for all engineers whilst working through a larger number of subject-specific specialist and optional units. On the course you will have the opportunity to enhance your computing knowledge and practical skills to enable you to be an effective manager and provide a progress route into employment, University or to higher-level qualifications. This two-year higher education course offers both theoretical and practical units combined with an extensive range of teaching and learning methods that enhance the learners’ knowledge and skill. They will teach you through a blend of lectures, guest speakers, seminars, case studies as well as individual and group work.Special features of this programme include:You can progress onto a final top-up year and achieve a full degreeSmall group sizes ensure you get the support you need to succeedIn May every year the college displays student project work to local enterprise groups, employers, universities and the local Gatwick Diamond community as part of Sussex’s STEMfest programme.At the end of the course you will have the opportunity to celebrate your achievement with a full graduation ceremony at Chichester Cathedral.STEM buildingThe college has built a multi-million pound facility at Crawley College that puts the college at the cutting edge of training delivery in electrical electronic. The new building is home to a suite of modern teaching and interactive spaces, which integrate the use of technology and STEM (science, technology, engineering & maths) in to its curriculum. The college also operates a large workshop space to support all learners’ to develop their practical hand skills. This area includes Lathes milling and CNC machines and is used to create, conduct testing and inspection,
