LAND-BASED ENGINEERING

Land-based engineering is a career for anyone with an interest in machines and how they work, a desire to learn practical skills and a fascination with new technology .

Today’s engineer has to be selfmotivated and highly trained in order to meet the demands of working with modern tractors, machines and equipment and must have strong analytical skills and an innovative approach to problem solving Highly skilled people are needed to design, develop, operate and maintain the landbased technology and tools of the future

Our engineering workshops, which include welding and fabrication areas, provide students with an optimum learning environment for practical work SRUC has close working relationships with a range of machinery manufacturers which provides students with access to modern equipment We have a wide variety of machinery on-site on which students can hone their skills and increase their technical knowledge for fault-finding, diagnostics, repair and maintenance

Those working in the Land-based Engineering sectors work with the most technically advanced products which may include GPS and telemetry, drones, robotics, autonomous vehicles and alternative fuel sources. The technology employed in the Land-based Engineering sectors meets or exceeds applications found in the military, aviation and formula 1 industries.
