CITY1077
Engineering Mathematics
To develop the student's mathematical ability and to apply principles to the solution of engineering problems and to make use of mathematical computer based packages
CITY1078
Engineering Science 1
An introduction to mechanical principles, energy transfer and AC electrical theory. Mechanical principles including solid mechanics, statics, dynamics and mechanical vibrations. Modes of heat transfer and energy losses. Electrical principles and single phase AC theory.
CITY1091
Engineering Materials
Study of Material structure. Appreciation of material properties. Understanding of manufacturing and design considerations for the use of different materials.
CITY1092
CAD Techniques and Design
An Introduction into CAD in the Design Process, progressing swiftly through 2D draughting to explore 3D conceptual design and visualisation. During this module students will take part in a relevant work based design project.
CITY1095
Applications of Pneumatics and Hydraulics
Learners will investigate pneumatic and hydraulic diagrams, examine the characteristics of components and equipment and evaluate the applications of pneumatics and hydraulics.
CITY1098
Management Techniques in Mechanical Engineering
On completion of this unit to appraise the main techniques that improve organisations’ operations.
CITY2092
Engineering Science 2
This module will enhance the knowledge acquired in engineering science, looking at more in depth methods of analysis of solids, statics and dynamics in the field of engineering
CITY2093
Advanced CAD & FEA
The development of 3D modelling techniques, Surface and Solid modelling within a dedicated 3D modelling package. Creating 3D visualisation and animations to communicate design concepts. Produce full sets of drawings, BOM’s and manufacturing information. Analyse the stresses and strains on structures using FEA techniques to achieve an optimised design solution.
CITY2094
Engineering Design
The aim of this module is to give students an opportunity to experience the process of carrying out a design project from conception to implementation. It will enable them to appreciate that design involves all aspects of customer desire, marketing, project planning, costing, product design and manufacture.
CITY2097
Project
An integration of the skills and knowledge developed in other modules of the course within a major piece of work that allows the student to develop the ability to work individually; and with others, within a defined timescale and given constraints, to produce an acceptable and viable solution to an agreed brief.
CITY2099
Thermo and Fluids
This module investigates the knowledge and understanding of thermodynamic system and fluid mechanics, in order to solve problems by analytical method and also familiarize with industrial machineries.
CITY2100
Engine Technology and Auxiliary Systems
This module investigates a number of engineering principles which underpin the design and operation of power plant and drive systems used in the Marine Industry. It includes some elements of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, but emphasis is on the mechanics of engines and propulsion systems.

This course is run at one of our partner colleges. Open days are held at the college and more details of these can be found on the college website. You'll find contact details below, on this page.
You are also very welcome to attend a University of Plymouth open day, to get a flavour of the courses you can progress to from a partner college. There will however be limited information on this specific course and college.
Just one-and-a-half miles from the University of Plymouth, we’re one of the largest colleges in the South West, with two main sites linked by shuttle buses, with a dynamic Students’ Union and Student Liaison Team.
