Bayfield High School
Level 2 Mechanical Engineering
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Mr P. Byers.
The Level 2 Mechanical Engineering course offers students the opportunity to design and construct practical engineering projects while meeting related theory requirements. Students are introduced to CAD design programs and drawings. This course builds on the skills learned at Level 1 and includes unit standards focused on health and safety, as well as the correct use of workshop equipment and machinery. Achievement standards may also be offered towards University Entrance. Students will develop skills in welding, lathe turning, milling and fabrication. The workshop is well-equipped with multiple welders, lathes, and both plasma and laser cutters. Students are expected to work independently within a self-directed programme, supported by the teaching staff.
Recommended Prior Learning
It is highly recommended that students have undertaken the Level 1 Mechanical Engineering course.
Equipment/Stationery
There may be additional costs for materials depending on the students choice of project. This will be discussed prior to any costs being incurred.
