Engineering - Student Information

What will I learn in Engineering?

Some of the things you will learn include:

• How to read and follow a technical drawing

• Skills in shaping, cutting and joining materials

• How to use a wide variety of tools and machines correctly and safely

• The properties of different metals and how they are made

• The importance of metal in our everyday lives

• How to use the internet in your research.

Is learning Engineering anything like what I did in primary school?

You will find that aspects of Maths you did in primary school will be useful to you, for example, working out measurements from drawings.You will also have examined different materials in SESE: Science, so you will be building on this knowledge.
