T Level in Design and Development for Engineering and Manufacturing (Mechanical Engineering Specialism)

There are different pathways which are available to you following the successful completion of your T Level Technical Qualification in Design and Development for Engineering and Manufacturing Options to consider include: Applying to university - Your T-level will be worth UCAS points -- A T-level at Distinction is worth the same as 3 A levels at A* -- and will be recognised by universities and other education providers so you can choose to continue studying if you wish. Specialise with an Apprenticeship Work in your occupational specialism.

There are so many different areas of engineering to work in; however, most engineers choose to specialise in just one, such as chemical, automotive or robotics.  Careers in engineering are constantly evolving and new processes and technologies are being developed all the time.  This allows engineers to stay on the ball and react to new problems and challenges in their chosen career.

Engineering careers are constantly varied in terms of their job responsibilities, but also in their working locations.  As an engineer you could be working in an office, in a laboratory, on an oil rig, in a factory or on a race track.

Each engineering discipline requires professionals with very specific skill-sets.  However each and every area of this sector is as complex as the next.  Consequently, all engineers need to have strong mathematical skills, logic and the ability to rise to intellectual and practical challenges.
