In terms of of mathematics in degree apprenticeships, is it then same as a normal bachelor degree? And do you need alot of work placement to land an apprenticeship of this level?

Hi Jack,Great question! The academic requirements of an engineering degree apprenticeship differ between the course and the companies. Some apprenticeships have A level maths as a requirement, others are fine with just STEM A levels in general or BTEC Level 3 Engineering. Some apprenticeships may simply want a specific amount of UCAS points. It is worth looking into checking what the requirements are for the apprenticeships you would like to apply to. My personal recommendation would be to try to have A level maths as it is very beneficial and fits into all requirements but if not, I'm sure you can work around [link removed] addition this, regarding degree content, again it differs between the course. Most, if not all engineering degree courses will cover mathematics in their course however, they typically start from the basics to make sure everyone is up to speed so do have a look at the modules that the university or training provider for the engineering degree have on [link removed] work placements and work experience, it will be beneficial for you to have some experience as it is the best evidence of your soft skills and abilty to work in a workplace. It is preferred to have engineering work experience but if you have other work experience, it is still amazing. What is important about work experience is that you have examples of you showing skills such as teamwork, leadership, collaboration, communication, organisation, time management and problem solving etc hence why you're not at a disadvantage if you don't have any engineering work experience but it is recommended. Some apprenticeships may even ask you customer-related questions so even something like retail experience would be good to showcase your skills. Please ensure your work experience is in person as it is the best way to show your skills. Lastly, to show your passion for engineering, it is worth engaging in any STEM-related extra curricular activities and clubs that your school may provide or you find online as this shows you are keen and motivated and shows to employers that they have a passionate candidate on their hands. You could even create your own project or activity as this is a huge sign of leadership, competency, passion and [link removed] hope that was useful and I am more than happy to respond to any follow up questions you may [link removed]
