Higher National Engineering programmes Julie Winter Sub Degree Programme Coordinator 2nd July 2010
Edexcel • Teesside University is a licensed provider and as such has autonomy as far as the HN programmes are concerned. • We will not be using directly the Edexcel unit specificatons. • We will not be using the directly the programme structures for the HN programmes • We can refer to them for guidance
New HN structure HND 245 credits 16 modules • HNC • 125 credits • 8 modules Project module 20 credit
Overall Grade • There will be an overall grade for the HNC and HND based on a points system for individual module grades • This will be calculated by the University SITS system
Modules • L4 underpinning knowledge such as: Analytical Methods for Engineers Engineering Science • L5 further development such as: Mechanical Principles Project
Core Modules • Recommended 4 modules • Must include 20 credit Project module
Example:HNC Mechanical Engineering Core Modules L4 • Analytical Methods for Engineers • Engineering Science L5 • Mechanical Principles • Project
Elective Modules HNC • Maximum of 3 L5 HND • Minimum of 8 L5 To tailor HNC/D to suit local industry needs
Example HNC Mechanical Engineering Core Elective L4 Application of Pneumatics & Hydraulics Heat Transfer & combustion Fluid Mechanics Materials Engineering Mechatronics Systems Principles L5 Engineering Design Business Management Techniques Plant Services L4 • Analytical Methods for Engineers • Engineering Science L5 • Mechanical Principles L5 • Project L5 Plus 4 modules from electives (max of 1 additional L5 )
HNC Mechanical Engineering 1st year • Analytical Methods for Engineers L4 • Engineering Science L4 • Heat Transfer & Combustion • Applications of Pneumatics & Hydraulics L4 • 2nd year • Mechanical Principles L5 • Materials Engineering L4 • Project L5 • 8. Business Management Techniques L5 8. Fluid Mechanics L4
