Course Details

Our MSc Systems Engineering (Electronic) and Engineering Management (Degree Apprenticeship Route) is designed to support the development of professionals that will perfectly match your organisations current and future needs. You can offer structured on-the-job training and an internationally recognised qualification in systems engineering and engineering management, helping you attract the best new talent and retain valued staff through career progression. Integrating study into the normal working week will allow your apprentices to put their new skills and understanding into practice immediately, benefitting your organisation without delay.

A systems engineer is the all-important link between complex programming and technology, and its users, customers and stakeholders. This postgraduate course will support your apprentices to develop a firm knowledge and understanding of both sides, and the ability to take a joined-up approach to ensure systems meet a wide range of needs reliably, efficiently, and in a user-friendly fashion. Our expert staff will guide them as they learn how to collect and organise information to understand the whole problem, explore it from all angles, and find the most appropriate solution. Your apprentices will spend most of their time in the workplace, with a minimum of six hours per week being devoted to off-the-job training and university learning.

Our dedicated team will cover advanced control engineering concepts and design methodologies for electronics, digital signal processing for control applications, artificial intelligent technology and total quality management. Your apprentices will also explore the commercial aspects of project management and develop essential communication and time management skills. By underpinning our content and assignments with a strong industrial focus, we foster a unique blend of practical engineering and management-oriented skills and knowledge focused on solving complex electronic engineering challenges. Throughout the course, well guide them as they build a portfolio of evidence representing the projects and tasks they have completed while working as part of your team.

The course is designed to meet professional institution standards in the UK and internationally.

If youre looking for postgraduate-level training in this subject area but dont work for an employer that offers apprenticeships, please see our related courses section for details of study opportunities that dont require current employment.

Highlights

  • When apprentices successfully complete the end point assessment for this course, they will receive a degree apprenticeship certificate from the relevant awarding body and be awarded an academic degree – the MSc Systems Engineering (Electronic) and Engineering Management from the University of Bolton.
  • Face-to-face sessions and one-to-one support are offered by our dedicated staff team who offer a wide range of professional experience, industry knowledge, technical expertise and academic credentials.
  • Well support your apprentices to develop sought-after skills such as background research, critical reasoning and problem-solving, as well as professional communication, time management, teamwork, and lifelong learning.
  • During the final stage of the course, your apprentice will undertake a substantial work-based research project, the nature of which will be identified and developed through consultation between your organisation and the University. As well as offering your apprentice valuable experience, this live project can provide you with genuine insight into potential opportunities or improvements that can benefit your organisation.
