Industrial Engineering Diploma
A full-year taught programme covering process design, work study, plant layout, and quality systems for learners preparing for supervisory or analyst roles on the factory floor.
Who it is for
School leavers, career changers, and technicians moving into industrial engineering roles
What you receive
The result is practical capability you can take back to a line, warehouse, or planning office—measured studies, clearer layouts, and shared language with supervisors—not a generic certificate alone.
- Core modules in work measurement, methods study, and process mapping
- Weekly studio sessions in the layout and materials-flow lab
- Supervised plant-visit days with regional manufacturers
- Capstone project assessed by tutors and an industry mentor
- Career guidance for analyst, planner, and junior IE posts
Not included
- Travel costs for optional factory visits beyond the included schedule
- Laptop or personal measuring tools (loan sets available on campus)
- Professional body membership fees
How it runs
- Submit an enquiry with your background and preferred start term
- Attend a campus interview and short aptitude exercise
- Receive an offer with module list and fee schedule
- Enrol, complete induction, and begin Term 1 workshops
Preparation
GCSE-level maths comfort and an interest in how workplaces run are more important than prior factory experience. Bring examples of practical problem-solving if you have them.
Constraints
Places are capped at 24 learners per intake so every studio group remains tutor-led. Evening-only attendance is not available for this programme.
