This is a primarily classroom-based role, focused on delivering the engineering theory, mathematics and principles that underpin a successful engineering career.
You’ll be teaching learners who are progressing through higher-level engineering qualifications, helping them understand the theory behind the systems, processes and technologies they encounter in industry.
The Role
You’ll deliver engaging, technically accurate teaching across HNC/HND Engineering programmes, covering areas such as:
- Engineering Principles
- Mechanical Engineering Principles
- Electrical and Electronic Principles
- Technical problem solving
- Applied engineering theory
The role will involve:
- Planning and delivering classroom-based HNC/HND lessons
