This unit enables the learner to develop the skills in and understanding of mathematics and science to facilitate progression onto awards that require mathematics and science as core requirements.

This module may assist those with a trade or similar background who wish to progress to a level 6 or 7 programme of study in engineering by addressing their maths and science skills and knowledge deficit. The programme is assessed through a series of coursework and assessments over the duration of the course and is designed to build confidence in the subject areas. It is primarily aimed at those learners who feel that maths and science are not their strong points. It will allow learners to progress to higher education where a knowledge and understanding of practical engineering principles of mathematics and engineering science topics is required. 

 

What are the entry requirements?

What Our Students Have to Say

TUS Flexible Learning offers access to a network of the greatest bunch of students ever, along with alumni, faculty, and business leaders both local and international. Working in a virtual world has not limited the access to any of these support networks and likely the main reason I have been able to get through the course while balancing work and family commitments. If you are considering taking that next step forward in your career, I would highly recommend the Master of Science program in TUS Flexible Online

The support from lecturers has been incredible. They are always available to answer questions and the assignment work is very practical so you gain really practical skills which you can bring with you to your workplace or new employer. The funded places make it really affordable and the lecturers really work with you so you get the best from the course.

I found it beneficial that my fellow students came from a variety of different disciplines and backgrounds. It was amazing to see that everybody could contribute their own specialist knowledge and skills while at the same time learning from new perspectives.
