Entry requirements
Most engineering courses expect students to have studied a relevant subject at school or further education level – many require them to have studied mathematics, but other supporting subjects are physics, computing, electronics, technology or science subjects.
There are also engineering courses with an emphasis on design – such as automotive or technology design – which might require academic experience in art or design. Similarly, for audio or music technology, students might need to show that they have practical music experience.
