Where does it lead? Engineering is currently one of the brightest parts of the UK economy. The success of companies like Jaguar Land Rover, Aston Martin and Bentley are some well-known examples of booming success stories over recent years. In the West Midlands, we have a long tradition of engineering companies with worldwide reputations. All of these companies, especially those in the high tech areas are keen to recruit young people and provide them with a well-paid, rewarding career. Especially those with good A levels, a BTEC qualification and plans to study to post graduate level. Course overview. The LSS BTEC National Engineering course is an Extended Certificate new course (as of 2016) equivalent to one A level. There are four units covered over two years. Three are mandatory, Unit 1: Engineering Principles, Unit 2: Health & Safety, Unit 3: Designing & Making. The optional unit is Unit 19: Electronic Devices and Circuits. All are taught concurrently with a specialist teacher for each unit. You can expect to: BTEC courses are designed to provide an area of study which includes a significant practical content with real life relevance to the workplace. It is also academically rigorous with challenging units based on how maths and science is applied to engineering scenarios and how health and safety is central to all engineering activities. Technical drawing, CAD and electronics are also integrated and the course will be enhanced by specialist visiting speakers, industrial visits and work experience placements for students to provide a varied, coherent course.
