Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) in Maintenance Engineering
Downtime due to maintenance and repair can have significant impact on profitability and delivery timescales. There is high demand for maintenance engineers with technical and managerial expertise.
This pathway focuses on the application of lifecycle management, statistical techniques, reliability, availability, asset management, engineering systems and control.
Graduates will be able to apply engineering and managerial skills to effectively and safely predict and plan maintenance schedules to avoid disruption and optimise production.

Degree apprenticeship entry requirements:
You will need one of the following:
- A minimum of two A-Levels at grade B or above, including a mathematical-based subject and a science, technology, engineering or an additional mathematics-related subject
- An Engineering BTEC Level 3 with at least 120 credits at DM (Distinction Merit) level or above
- Level 4 HNC (Pass)
- Level HND (Pass)
- EAL Diploma in an engineering-based subject at distinction level
- Equivalent qualifications such as Technical Levels (T-Levels) at DM or above.
Candidates with a HND or Foundation degree or who have completed the second year of a degree in a relevant subject can be assessed for direct entry onto the 2nd or 3rd year of the programme (BEng top-up), but 1st year entry or an alternative pathway may still be recommended.
Candidates who have not studied in the UK can submit transcripts for qualifications equivalent to level 3 which the admissions panel will review and may be taken in lieu of the specified qualifications.
Applicants are also required to successfully complete a series of assessments at the University of Sheffield’s AMRC Training Centre, as well as an employer recruitment and selection process to secure a place on an apprenticeship programme.
How do I apply?
"“AMRC Training Centre graduates have the ability to take the knowledge they’ve gained and apply it to a wide variety of situations- unstructured situations where they can make the right decisions and have the right thought process that allows them to approach things in a positive and innovative (or creative) way.” – Matthew Harmon, Head of Engineering, Tribosonics."
