Industry Links

Our courses are sponsored by Middlesex Aerospace, Gillette, and West Berkshire Training Consortium (WBTC). As part of your course you will enjoy regular trips to large engineering employers such as Inductotherm and the National Grid.

You will also visit Lasham Airfield to take part in a gliding project, compete in a Rotary technology tournament and attend a STEM event at Thorpe Park. Previous students have worked with Lasham Gliding Centre to build a trailer for their glider.

Our course sponsors ensure students have the opportunity to progress into employment with them, usually via apprenticeships. Students who successfully complete our HND course may also have direct entry onto the third year of the BA Engineering degree at a prestigious local university.
