Studying with Petroc
With main campuses in Barnstaple, Tiverton and Brannams, if you decide to study at the combined college, you’ll be able to take advantage of increased resources and the plethora of learning opportunities associated with them.
PETR1092
Analytical Methods
This module focuses upon the mathematical strategies and processes involved in solving a wide range of engineering problems. Develops analytical and algebraic skills transferable to engineering subjects. Gives students the analytical tools to solve problems in their own field and also exposes them to the application of complex number, matrix methods, calculus and statistics across engineering.
PETR1093
Engineering Science
This module provides an introduction to solid mechanics and energy systems so that students will have a firm base from which to work when they under take further studies.
PETR1095
Introduction to Engineering Software
This module explores the application of engineering software to support solutions to engineering problems. These can range from mathematical solutions such as the use of Matlab, to electronic simulation, programmable logic controllers, CNC programming. A range of engineering software will allow students to select and explore engineering solutions
PETR1143
Advanced CAD Techniques
This module develops both 2D and 3D modelling skills and the use of computer simulation in support of engineering tasks. The principal activity will be developing a portfolio of engineering drawings and designs by working through graded tasks. Students’ produce working drawings and designs, where some are used produce animations and analysis.
