This project aims to encourage engagement in STEM Higher Education through the development of an innovative engaging & practical mathematics ‘bridging’ programme for new students enrolling on HNC HND FD and BEng programmes in Engineering.
The engineering courses are offered in full-time part-time and intensive delivery forms. In intensive mode a module is delivered over a continuous six day period. A large majority of applicants do not possess the level 3 mathematics qualification required to embark on the programme. The School offers such students the opportunity to take a level 3 bridging course in mathematics via the intensive route.
