    Program Structure

    At Level 4 students develop a broad knowledge and awareness of key aspects of the engineering sector through four core units, including one unit assessed by a Pearson-set assignment. The core units are: 

    • Unit 1: Engineering Design 
    • Unit 2: Engineering Mathematics 
    • Unit 3: Engineering Science 
    • Unit 4: Managing a Professional Engineering Project*. 

    *Unit 4: Managing a Professional Engineering Project is also the Pearson-set assignment unit.

    For the Manufacturing Engineering pathway, students take the four mandatory core units, two specialist units and an additional two optional units.

    Qualification Requirements

    • Qualification credit value: a minimum of 120 credits. This is made up of eight units, each with a value of 15 credits. 
    • Total Qualification Time (TQT) Higher National Certificate (HNC) = 1,200 hours 
    • Total Guided Learning Hours (GLH) Higher National Certificate (HNC) = 480 hours 
    • There is a required mix of core, specialist and optional units totalling 120 credits. All units are at Level 4.
