Graduate Apprenticeships are an innovative route to a degree qualification blending academic study with work-based learning, supported by the student’s employer. This course covers topics in instrumentation and automation providing the student with a grounding in engineering principles, concepts and theories involving managerial, technical and environmental issues in the modern workplace. Instrumentation, Measurement and Control provides the student with the knowledge, understanding and skills required to become successful professional engineers within process related industries.
Faculty: School of Computing, Engineering and Technology | Duration: 4 years full-time | Study mode: full-time; graduate apprenticeship | Intake: September | Location: Aberdeen, Scotland, United Kingdom
Students start the course by learning fundamental practical and theoretical skills essential within the general engineering discipline: using tools and equipment to draw and make things; expanding mathematical skills; enhancing science and engineering to comprehend how things work and are controlled; learning about working in industry. Building on the first year, students will find out more about electronics and control, by looking at signals - how to transmit and process them - and controlling systems using microprocessors.
A Graduate Apprenticeship synchronises theoretical learning with practical experience. Students joining this Graduate Apprenticeship course will already be at full-time employment, thus they will be at any level of their work experience and career.
Employment All applicants must be employed full-time in a role related to the course of study, must have the right to live and work in Scotland and be working in Scotland. The employer must commit to providing a suitable workplace environment and to offering guidance and mentoring support to the apprentice. In addition, the company must be willing to partner with the university via a Collaboration Agreement to create a setting in which the student will be able to achieve the required experience and learning outcomes.
