Additional and specialist learning

At each level, you can develop your particular engineering interests further by taking specialist courses relating to your chosen subject and career ambitions.  Depending on the options available at your local school or college, you could, for example, learn about robotics, medical engineering, aerospace, car and motorcycle maintenance, electronics or chemical manufacturing.

If you want to carry on studying engineering at university, it would be a good idea to take the maths for engineers option designed specifically for Diploma students as part of the Advanced Diploma in Engineering.

You can also broaden your course by taking an additional subject that reflects your other interests and career ambitions - like a language, a science, or a creative subject like Music.
