Starting on more basic tasks, as you increase in confidence and your studies progress you'll get involved in more projects in an increasingly autonomous environment - but always with the support and guidance from world leading technical specialists in that area. Placements within Environmental Engineering include: Mechanical and Climatic Test Structural test Facility maintenance Trials & Data Analysis Mechanical & Climatic Project Through your placements you'll benefit from the breadth and depth of a diverse function - from Theory and Design, to Analysis and Application - you'll get to experience some incredibly niche areas! All whilst working in our bespoke facilities. You'll be taking your learning at University and applying it directly to your work. This is a truly outstanding chance to be hands on with advanced and sophisticated test hardware and equipment. Mechanical Engineering You'll gain vast experience of a product lifecycle which will provide the foundations on which to build the expertise required to design, make, and test the next generation of missile system hardware. This will cover a variety of Mechanical Engineering, including computer aided concept design, simulation and modelling to hands on testing, manufacture and assembly. The apprenticeship is designed to educate and develop engineering foundations from which to grow practical and academic skills. As experience increases following training on engineering principles and some basic project work, apprentices can expect to tackle more complex projects in an increasingly autonomous environment. Typical placements in this stream can include: Mechanical Design Mechanical Future Concepts Actuation Systems Mechanical Analysis Materials and Processes Environmental Engineering As a Mechanical Engineering apprentice you can expect to gauge an understanding of material properties and how to utilise their unique characteristics in Engineering design they will also learn how to use industry standard design tools such as Creo Parametric as well as simulation and modelling packages: Altair, HyperMesh, and Ansys.
