If you have a love for engineering, technology, the environment and science - then expanding your knowledge in areas like diagnostics and fault-finding, open-source technology, robotics, engines and alternative fuel sources, is on offer for you.
There are several routes into land-based engineering:
• Full Time Education (subject to location)
• Apprenticeships
• Degrees
Full Time Education
• T-levels or A-level equivalents. T-levels in Land-based Engineering are launching in September and are a nationally recognised qualification for 16-19 year-olds that take 2 years to complete. (England Only).
• National Certificates (NC) and Scottish Vocational Qualifications (SVQ) in Land-based Engineering (Scotland Only)
• Diploma’s in Land-based Engineering (Wales and Northern Ireland)
Apprenticeships
Apprenticeships are a way to get right to the heart of your training for a vocation. And are ideal for those who value earning a wage whilst developing their knowledge, skills and know-how. Working 20% of your time in the classroom and 80% in a work based placement you will learn:
• Operating principles of machinery, plant and equipment within the land-based engineering sector.
• Underpinning service, maintenance and repair principles.
• Accessing & interpreting technical date
And so much more!

Degrees
Employers needs engineers. Universities like Harper Adams University pride themselves on their graduates being industry ready the first date on the job. The engineering degrees studied equip graduates with the skills, knowledge and experience the land-based industry needs. With project-focused curriculums and a placement year, you can change your horizons and achieve more than you ever thought possible.
A degree course in land-based engineering requires motivation and drive, you’ll need to be a self-believer and have confidence. You will learn to work in teams or independently and you’ll get a huge amount of help and guidance along the way from professional engineers with expertise in many areas.
