NCEA Level 2 Engineering
Course Description
Head of Faculty - Kaihautuu: Mr S. Qureshi.
This course is provided by Competenz. Within the course, students will make a small engineering project that will build on the skills they have learned in year 11.
Students will be expected to use lathes and mills, as well as, handtools/power tools with confidence. They will complete three units of work involving the understanding of mechanical engineering drawings, fabrication and use of machines.
This course is ideal for someone who is looking to enter the workplace as an apprentice engineer rather than continuing into year 13.
Course Overview
Term 3
Unit standards 32051, 32053 and 32055 completed at the end of term
Recommended Prior Learning
It is strongly recommended that students have completed year 11 engineering before selecting this course. Priority will be given to those who have completed all of the required work from the previous year. Students who have not taken the subject previously and are extremely motivated to take it at Level 2 should meet with the teacher in charge and discuss their request.
