  1. Higher National Engineering programmes Julie Winter Sub Degree Programme Coordinator 2nd July 2010

  2. Edexcel • Teesside University is a licensed provider and as such has autonomy as far as the HN programmes are concerned. • We will not be using directly the Edexcel unit specificatons. • We will not be using the directly the programme structures for the HN programmes • We can refer to them for guidance

  3. New HN structure HND 245 credits 16 modules • HNC • 125 credits • 8 modules Project module 20 credit

  4. Overall Grade • There will be an overall grade for the HNC and HND based on a points system for individual module grades • This will be calculated by the University SITS system

  5. Modules • L4 underpinning knowledge such as: Analytical Methods for Engineers Engineering Science • L5 further development such as: Mechanical Principles Project

  6. Core Modules • Recommended 4 modules • Must include 20 credit Project module

  7. Example:HNC Mechanical Engineering Core Modules L4 • Analytical Methods for Engineers • Engineering Science L5 • Mechanical Principles • Project

  8. Elective Modules HNC • Maximum of 3 L5 HND • Minimum of 8 L5 To tailor HNC/D to suit local industry needs

  9. Example HNC Mechanical Engineering Core Elective L4 Application of Pneumatics & Hydraulics Heat Transfer & combustion Fluid Mechanics Materials Engineering Mechatronics Systems Principles L5 Engineering Design Business Management Techniques Plant Services L4 • Analytical Methods for Engineers • Engineering Science L5 • Mechanical Principles L5 • Project L5 Plus 4 modules from electives (max of 1 additional L5 )

  10. HNC Mechanical Engineering 1st year • Analytical Methods for Engineers L4 • Engineering Science L4 • Heat Transfer & Combustion • Applications of Pneumatics & Hydraulics L4 • 2nd year • Mechanical Principles L5 • Materials Engineering L4 • Project L5 • 8. Business Management Techniques L5 8. Fluid Mechanics L4

  11. Approval Process • Subject group meetings • Choose core and electives • Module specifications • School guidelines • Module approval event • Critical read • Sub Degree provision Programme approval event

  12. Approval Documents • Module Specifications • Programme specification • Programme Handbook • Programme Evaluation Document

  13. Module Specification • School guidelines • Utreg form • Common modules • Specific modules

  14. Assessment Strategy • Maximum of three elements of assessment per module • Learning outcomes mapped to assessments • Assessments detailed • Address actions recommended by External Examiners

  15. Programme Specification • Common programmes • Specialist programmes Must include: • All delivery patterns • All delivery locations

  16. Programme Handbooks Generic school document with college specific additional information • Programme structure • Staff Profiles and Photographs • Student Profiles & Quotes • Academic misconduct • Sample assessment Schedule

  17. Programme Handbooks

  18. Programme Evaluation Document (PED) • Each college will produce own PED • Informs overall Sub Degree Provision PED
