This full time Engineering Technology Level 5 course is designed to meet the needs of a variety of students who wish to explore the field of engineering. The course aims to develop skills, knowledge, and expertise essential to gaining an apprenticeship in a range of trades in the industry, as well as providing progression opportunities to those interested in studying engineering at third level.

The aim of this course is to provide learners with a basic understanding of Mechanical Engineering. Students will gain practical skills to pursue a career in the Engineering industry and have an introduction to theory necessaryfor entry into Third Level education. Students will also have the opportunity to study QQI Level 5 Maths required for entry into Engineering courses at Third Level. In this course learners will through theory and practice gain experience in the following: Machine Processes, Bench Fitting, Precision Measurement, Computer Aided Design, 3D Printing & Electronics.

This programme would be of interest to learners who are considering engineering employment options or pursuing a degree or an apprenticeship in the engineering field. This programme covers workshop practices, including working with lathes, milling machines and welders. The programme also covers engineering drawing and 3D design and printing techniques. Upon completion of this programme, learners will have gained a theoretical understanding of, and acquired practical competencies in engineering skills. In addition, learners will develop good work practices including adherence to health and safety regulations.

This course offers practical skills in fitting, auto electrics, CAD and hydraulics.This skillset forms the basis of any course in Engineering which learners might pursue at a third level institution or on an apprenticeship. Trainees will complete 12 weeks workbased learning with Combilift Ltd. and 26 weeks of classroom-based learning in Monaghan Institute. Work Placement is spread across the year in blocks of two/ three weeks in various positions within the factory, providing diverse working experiences and opportunities.

A traineeship combines classroom-based learning with work based learning which is delivered in a host company thus providing the opportunity to develop skills, knowledge and competence within a supportive working environment.

The aim of this programme is to enable the learner to acquire the knowledge, skill and competence to safely utilise a range of techniques and processes to solve engineering related challenges and or to progress to further and or higher education or training.

This course has been designed to meet the needs of a variety of students wishing to study Engineering and Construction at third level. Core competencies in Engineering are studied giving students an excellent foundation to their studies.

This is a practical based course where learning takes place primarily in workshops and drawing rooms.

Engineers are the innovators and problem solvers of the modern era. From simple structures the complex, a door handle to a supercar an engineer has been involved from concept design to production. This course is designed to equip learners with the skills and knowledge to enter employment at apprenticeship level or progress onto professional engineering programmes at various universities and Institutes of Technology.

The course aims to educate and train students in Mechanical Engineering with emphasis on the technical requirements of industry in Ireland. The course is a preparation for direct employment in an engineering industry. It will provide students with a solid foundation to study an engineering course at third level.

Students studying Mechanical Engineering have access to technical workshops, fitted with a variety of specialist equipment, including lathe, milling machine, cnc, mig, tig and arc welding.

Engineering is a highly diversified and exciting profession with a wide range of specialisms from mechanical, civil, electrical, computer, building, biomedical, structural, modern technologies, aircraft to mention a few. Everything around us has been designed and mostly by Engineers.  From life-saving biomedical technology to energy-efficient housing and sustainable energy, engineers are developing innovative solutions for the benefit of society.

For those who wish to engage on a career in engineering, this course aims to prepare the student with an understanding of the field of engineering and will prepare students for entry into third level, through a range of practical and theoretical subjects

This one year full-time programme will introduce students to the world of Engineering. It aims to provide students with a wide range of experience within the Engineering sectors, while preparing students for entry into third level education, apprenticeships or direct entry into the workplace. Students will attend our purpose built engineering training workshop for one full day weekly. Here the students will use and learn how to operate different engineering machines including a CNC Lathe, a Laser Cutter and all welding types, including a VR welding simulator.

This programme will allow students to become familiar with the terminology, materials, equipment and working practices within the Engineering industry. The course content will be delivered in a practical and hands on environment where students will gain experience in Engineering Processes, Engineering Drawing and Computer Aided Design (2D and 3D CAD).

The course comprises two awards, the Level 5 Certificate in Agriculture (120 credits) and the Level 6 Specific Purpose Certificate in Farming (50 credits), and consists of a combination of formal course work and a period of practical learning. The formal course work is split between practical/ skills training and classroom (theoretical) sessions.

The course consists of a range of mandatory and elective modules such as: farm business and IT; principles of agriculture; farm safety; farm assurance; farm enterprise production modules; safe use of pesticides; farm performance and management modules; grass production modules, and environmental modules. Students choose a cluster of elective modules in one of the following specialisms: dairy production, drystock production, machinery and crop production.
