NCEA Level 3 Engineering

Course Description

Head of Faculty - Kaihautuu: Mr S. Qureshi.

If you're passionate about engineering and want to continue exploring it in Year 13, this course is for you. We've taken into account the increasing number of students interested in engineering at this level, and we're delighted to offer you the opportunity to delve deeper into the subject.

The Level 3 Engineering course has been carefully developed in collaboration with industry experts, Competenz (Engineering ITO), and schools. Together, we have crafted three unit standards that align with industry requirements, giving you the essential knowledge and skills necessary for success in the engineering workforce.

Let's take a closer look at the course. The Level 3 Engineering course consists of three unit standards, each focusing on a different aspect of the field:

Unit Standard 32052 - L3 Engineering Drawing: In this unit, you'll learn how to produce development drawings and patterns for three-dimensional objects in a MaPS environment. Enhance your visualization and communication skills to effectively convey engineering designs.

Unit Standard 32054 - L3 Mechanical Engineering: Get ready to dive into the world of mechanical engineering. This unit will guide you through performing engineering machining operations in a MaPS environment. Discover the precision and craftsmanship involved in shaping raw materials into functional mechanical components.

Unit Standard 32056 - L3 Engineering Fabrication: This unit will provide you with hands-on experience in engineering fabrication. Learn the techniques involved in performing fabrication operations, including cutting, bending, welding, and more, to bring designs to life.

Are you ready to embark on this educational journey? The Level 3 Engineering course offers you the chance to expand your knowledge, refine your skills, and become industry-ready. Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to take your engineering aspirations to new heights in Year 13!
