The OTHM Level 3 Foundation Diploma in Engineering is structured to equip learners with fundamental engineering knowledge and understanding, covering a diverse set of skills in areas like engineering principles, design technology, electricity, mechanics, statistics, and mathematics. This foundation helps learners ready themselves for entry-level roles within the engineering field or pursue advanced studies.
Learners aged 16 and older are eligible, with the only expectation being that they possess the necessary capability to engage fully with the learning and assessments. All course material is presented in English, and non-native speakers must show evidence of language proficiency.
This Level 3 OTHM qualification aligns with the practical skills and knowledge level of GCE AS/A Levels.
The course can be completed within one academic year for full-time students but offers flexibility for part-time and online learners, making it accessible through various delivery methods by accredited centers.
Assessments are conducted within the center and are overseen by OTHM for quality assurance. A 'pass' requires evidence meeting each learning outcome and criterion.
After completing this qualification, learners may pursue higher OTHM diplomas at Level 4 or enter entry-level employment in engineering. For more details, visit the University Progressions page.
