Electro-mechanical Engineering Apprenticeship 1 University Centre Weston

This Level 6 (degree) Electro-mechanical Engineering Apprenticeship at University Centre Weston integrates technical engineering knowledge, practical skills and business awareness through project-based learning. The programme emphasises sustainability and professional development so apprentices progress from workplace trainees to graduate engineers while studying.

Coursework spans electrical and mechanical systems, materials, engineering mathematics, programming for engineers, control engineering and integrated design projects. Teaching is delivered across multiple years with industry-linked projects, collaborative research tasks and practical assessments designed to develop problem-solving, systems thinking and multidisciplinary teamwork.

The programme runs on a full-time apprenticeship basis (4 or 5 years) with the next listed start in September 2026 at Filton, Bristol. Individual employers recruit apprentices and set final selection criteria; typical academic profiles include five GCSEs (including Maths and English) plus A-levels in relevant subjects or substantial Level 3 BTEC credits.

Apprenticeship funding may be provided via an employer's Apprenticeship Levy where applicable.
