Teeside HNC Electrical and Electronic Engineering

[sm75k]

Nice one, I haven't needed any software apart from MS word and excel but that isn't a requirement i think some people submit their assignments hand written.

 

[sledgehammer]

Books arrived. Thanks for your help sm75k. They look pretty hard going, I can see a vast investment of effort on my part. :crazy:

 

[sparkymalarky]

Absolutely no need for software and don't even try to type out your formulae and calculations as it will be more hassle than its worth! Hand write, scan them in, submit and move on to the next one! I spent enough money and time on the course without forking out for some guff piece of software! Submitted AME TMA 1 last night, almost half way through!

 

[sparkymalarky]

Lads, anyone on AME yet? In particular TMA2?

 

[sledgehammer]

Anyone able to put up what they're working on? Waiting to hear back from Teeside and tbh a bit worried I'm gonna be outta my depth. Wish I'd done it a couple of years ago given the price hike.

 

[sm75k]

You will either get the maths bridging module first or engineering science

Sparkymalarky tried to PM you but it says your inbox is full?

 

[sparkymalarky]

Try now sm75k, cleared my inbox now! Go on to Teesside website sledgehammer and look at all the information provided on the course, it's all on there! That's how I found out about it! Then go sites like physics forum etc, they will give you an indication of what each module and subject entails! Common sense approach!

Hi Gents,

Just back on after a while away. I see that some of you are on AME congrats on passing ENS................. Ive started the first TMA of ANE and having a heavy time of it. Anyone still doing ENS? Im happy to help where i can

 

[sm75k]

Glad to see you back, i'm on the last ENS TMA now but finding it the easiest out of the 4 to be honest

 

[Justadaftspark]

Yeah i found that i could get my head round AC circuits a bit better.

 

[sparkymalarky]

Well lads, whats the sit-rep now? Where are we all at? I'm currently on Calculus TMA3 of AME! Dog rough! Please tell me someone is alongside me on TMA3 of AME?

 

[Silly Sausage]

I'm currently on Calculus

Have you used something like this yet...
Calculus Calculators - Derivative, Integrals, Limits, Series ?
It might be helpful.

There is a serious/pro one but I can't remember where it's at.

 

[sm75k]

Wish i could mate, your a machine with this stuff, i'm just finishing TMA 4 of ES. I've really been putting the hours in as well. I cant believe it's taken me over a year! I'm hoping some of the other modules might be a bit easier going.

Hello everyone.

I'm just doing my Design and Verification at the moment. Then I will be wanting to do my HNC via Teesside.

Work will never allow me day release unfortunately.

Looking forward to contributing to this thread.

Been thinking about doing this course for better job prospects. Im an approved spark with AS level maths. what criteria do you need to get on the course and what is the rough cost and timeframe? Any help appreciated

 

[GlennT]

Anybody completed their Engineering Science module?

 

[sparkymalarky]

Glenn, I have replied to your PM.

 

[jimmy c]

Also on calculus, damn its hard :-( then again if it was easy it wouldn't be worth doing

AS maths is ALL you need mate!

I have spent 4 months doing this module, yes it was very hard. Now I am told that I must complete 2 modules a year othrwise I am off the course.

Anyway 4 distinctions, now the phonecall to complete the module.

 

[sparkymalarky]

Don't see how you can enrol on a course to be told you have five years to complete it (hope to be finished before that anyway but still) to be then told 8 months into the course that unless you complete 2 modules a calendar year you will be kicked off the course. 2modules a year at 8 modules is 4 years. Bit Harsh. Pressures on now but that's ok because pressure is for tyres

 

[Guest 004]

I enrolled when each module was £200. The modules are now £500, which means this current government has withdrawn the funding. So to try and kick you off, they say you must do 2 modules a year.

hi guys/girls hows everyone doing.. hows everyone getting on with there hnc.. just finished eng science and AME and now just started electrical principles.

 

[Guest 004]

Finished engineering science, now doing AME. which had 15 modules of Calculus.

 

[Stackemup]

Hi everyone,

I completed the analytical methods module a few month ago and have just got round to the engineering science module. If anyone needs help with the maths and can perhaps help me with the first engineering science I would appreciate it.

 

[Guest 004]

^ How come you guys are doing AME before ENS? I was told that I had to ENS first, then AME, after that I could do selective modules?

 

[Stackemup]

I just got the AME when I paid for the 1st module, not sure why?

 

[LeeH]

How much are the modules?

 

[Guest 004]

They are £500 each now
