The curriculum is divided into modules, broken down into units and elements. The entire curriculum takes an hybridised approach to teaching and learning strategies. This approach combines aspects of innovative and traditional modules.

Programme Duration

The duration of the course is 3 years. The first two years are generally college based and at the beginning of the third year of the course, students are placed in approved laboratories to gain the necessary work experience.
