(22632VIC- Certificate II in Engineering Studies)

Roxburgh College RTO ID: 22612

Course Description:
This is an exciting course for students to access the latest hi tech industry equipment. This course is focused on students who wish to develop skills and knowledge in running a hitech Engineering business. Students will access CNC Laser Cutting equipment to design and manufacture products to sell to clients. As part of the business enterprise, students will plan, design, manufacture and supply products with students collectively retaining a share of the profits from the Enterprise. Students will need to be design orientated and able to use computer software to operate the hitech CNC Laser Cutter. Students will complete units in Certificate II in Engineering as part of this program. 

Who Should Apply?
Students interested in a career pathway in Engineering, Welding, Metal Design and Construction. 

Possible Job Outcomes:
There is a shortage of Engineers, particularly in our immediate area and state-wide. There is an excellent career pathway for qualified Engineers. 

Program Length:
This course will be conducted over 2 years. 

Does this subject contribute to my Yr 12 ATAR?
Students wishing to receive an ATAR contribution for VCE VET Engineering Studies must undertake Scored Assessment for the purpose of achieving a Study Score. This Study Score can contribute directly to the primary four, or as a fifth or sixth study.
