This programme, in addition to offering a minor award at level 6, is designed as a one-year online qualifier to allow holders of craft qualifications and others with substantial relevant work experience to progress to the level 7 BEng in Electronic Engineering. On successful completion of the programme, the learner will receive a minor award at level 6 and will be adequately prepared to participate in the level 7 Electronic programme. This level 7 programmes can then be completed in a further two years online study. Module overview: Instrumentation is a foundation course in the principles of electronic circuit theory and the fundamental technologies & practical applications of sensors. The module aim is to equip learners with the basic theoretical and practical skills required to analyse and test low voltage direct current electrical circuits. It addresses topics such as Ohm's Law, Kirchoff's Laws, voltage, capacitance, inductance, semiconductors and the sensing of common parameters for system monitoring and control including temperature, pressure, light, and distance.

| Entry Requirements | Entry to the programme is open to candidates who have completed phase 6 of a relevant craft certificate or equivalent. Other candidates may gain entry through the recognition of prior (RPL) learning in accordance with institute procedures. RPL is a process that may allow you to gain admission to a programme or to receive exemptions/ credit for some parts of the programme based on demonstrated learning that you may have achieved through another programme of study or through your work or career. Further information is available at www.atu.ie/recognition-of-prior-learning which our dedicated RPL portal or by contacting our admissions team at admissions.sligo@atu.ie . |
| Career Path | This programme is suitable for those with some technical background looking to up-skill into the Electronics profession. |
