Engineering has three well-equipped workshops, with a total floor area of 700 square metres, with classroom facilities and a clean work area. Students have access to the internet and software such as ‘auto data’, with computer assisted problem solving and interactive Motor Vehicle Technology CDs. The practical activity in some of our Engineering courses is carried out in workshops at the Tweedbank Construction Hub, and our general classrooms are used for theory, drawing, science and associated subjects, have computers with internet access and are equipped with the latest SMART boards. We have access to the College Learning Resource Centre to supplement lecturers’ notes and handouts.
We have an excellent working relationship with the Training Boards and well-established relationships with local employers and the local Employers Federation.
