Engineer your career! Combine work and study with this part-time course set
to take your career to new heights. Our Higher National Certificate in Electrical and Electronic Engineering has
been developed to meet the training needs of those employed or interested in a
career in the electronic, control engineering and related industries. An important component of the course is the project module in which students
are engaged on a personal engineering project of commercial significance. This
enables the student to apply much of the knowledge and skills gained on the
course to a realistic project at advanced level, and of significant benefit to
their employer.
