Where can this course take me?

Advances in Science and Technology are revolutionising the world in which we live and influence almost every aspect of our lives. With the pace of discovery and development ever increasing, the range of career opportunities for people with the skills that Science qualifications provide are unimaginably diverse and you will always be in demand.

During your studies you will develop the skills to perform investigations in our state of the art laboratories, you will learn how to build prototype circuits, fault-find and analyse their operation. You will learn how to use signal generators, oscilloscopes, multi-meters, power supplies and logic probes. You will be required to apply your new-found knowledge to unfamiliar contexts and must be able to clearly communicate the reasoning behind your conclusions. This qualification is very good preparation for engineering of all kinds and for computer courses that include some study of hardware. If you want to be a practical scientist or engineer this could be the perfect course for you. Please note, for engineering make sure that you study Physics and Mathematics but Electronics can also be combined with Computer Science.
