Digital Engineering Lifecycle
Training:The curriculum will be delivered through a blended learning approach which will involve some time on the University campus, alongside online teaching (both live and recorded) and workplace activities. Time on campus will be for activity-designed, problem-solving sessions where students get hands-on and interact with peers and teaching staff.
The objective is to ramp up your capabilities over the first two years and then provide room for employers to make use of these capabilities in the last two years whilst coping with the more complex subjects towards the end of the course.
This is designed also to synchronise with the change in curriculum. Years 1 and 2 are identical for all four standards. In Years 3 and 4, students on different pathways follow their route through the specialist subjects, culminating in a year-long work-based project to achieve a bachelor's degree.
Throughout the degree, you will also participate in work-based learning (WBL) modules at all levels. The objective of the WBL activities is to make the degree journey a unique experience for each student and to provide specific guidance on how to make the learning work for you.Training Outcome:
