	&lt;p&gt;Network Rail sponsor students on Sheffield Hallam University?s full-time Foundation Degree in Railway Engineering.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;The course is designed to fast-track the right people with an interest in engineering into the railway industry. It combines theory with practical experience and gives you the chance to work on some of the biggest projects in the industry.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;It has been developed by Sheffield Hallam University in partnership with Network Rail and other organisations in the rail industry, including London Underground, Jarvis Rail, Grant Rail and Balfour Beatty.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Back to top Top of page&lt;br /&gt;
Who is it for?&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;We are looking for men &amp; women who want a career in railway engineering. There is no age limit and the course has already attracted many mature students.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;To become a full-time student, you will need to undertake a successful interview with an industry sponsor (Network Rail), have a medical assessment to meet the industry standards for employment and one of the following qualifications from a relevant technical or scientific subject area:&lt;/p&gt;

    * 80 points from at least one GCE/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;VCE&lt;/span&gt; A-level or &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;BTEC&lt;/span&gt; National Award
    * Evidence of studying Maths at an advanced level
    * Pre-2002 A-levels ? 6 points from at least one &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;GCE&lt;/span&gt; A-level
    * &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;GNVQ&lt;/span&gt; ? advanced/level 3 pass
    * Pre-2003 BTEC/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;SCOTVEC&lt;/span&gt; ? National Certificate/Diploma pass
    * Foundation ? pass from the preparatory year (foundation) for the extended degree in engineering.

	&lt;p&gt;Back to top Top of page&lt;br /&gt;
Academic learning&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;The course offers a valuable combination of academic learning at Sheffield Hallam University and workplace experience.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Each year, you will spend the first seven months (September to March) at the University. During these months, every Wednesday is designated an ?industry day? when senior managers deliver presentations, engineers give technical talks and hold workshops or students make industrial site visits.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Back to top Top of page&lt;br /&gt;
Workplace experience&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;During the five months spent in the workplace (April to September), you will rotate around the different engineering functions of your sponsor organisation. For example, in year 1, you might follow a plan similar to this:&lt;/p&gt;

    * 4 weeks with Signal Maintenance Engineering
    * 4 weeks with Track Maintenance Engineering
    * 4 weeks with Track Renewals Engineering
    * 4 weeks with Civil Engineering
    * 4 weeks with Electrification &amp; Plant Engineering

	&lt;p&gt;From the first day of your work placement, you will be assigned a mentor. As well as providing general support, your mentor will set you objectives in line with the standards of the assessed, work-based learning elements of the course, which you will be expected to meet.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Back to top Top of page&lt;br /&gt;
Paid contracts&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;As a Network Rail sponsored student, you will receive a bursary to help towards tuition fees for the seven months at the University. During your work placements, you will be employed on a five month fixed-term contract. You will earn ?13,000 in the first year and ?15,000 in the second year on a pro-rata basis.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;You also will be given the necessary health &amp; safety training and provided with the personal protective equipment &amp; other tools that you need.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Where possible, you will be able to take up a placement close to your home or another location you choose.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;In the future, you could also achieve a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Railway Engineering with an additional year of modular or part-time study. However, there is no guarantee of sponsorship for the third year.&lt;/p&gt;

  <description>&lt;strong&gt;Location:&lt;/strong&gt; Various&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;URL:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.everydaybrilliance.co.uk/&quot;&gt;http://www.everydaybrilliance.co.uk/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Description:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	&lt;p&gt;Electrification &amp; Plant&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#8217;s your line, you&amp;#8217;ll keep power flowing through it and keep thousands of trains moving. And you&amp;#8217;ll do it every day.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;40% of our network is electrified and over 60% of all rail traffic is electric. So you can imagine the size and importance of our work. We not only maintain the power for these overhead lines and the electrified rail, we also have to make sure everything is done safely and efficiently. In addition, we take responsibility for all our fixed plant, including the generators, pumps and electrical supply systems.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Electrification &amp; Plant can be divided into three areas: Contact Systems &amp;#65533; which allows the train to pick up electrical current; Distribution &amp;#65533; where we make sure that the power gets from the National Grid to the train; and Plant &amp;#65533; which is all the fixed machinery that is used trackside to keep the railway running. In fact, there is a wide range of work, and you&amp;#8217;ll get a good general insight into much of what we do. Also E&amp;P is a massive part of our infrastructure &amp;#65533; overall we use 1% of the electricity generated in the UK.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;ul&gt;
		&lt;li&gt;What you&amp;#8217;ll do&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;/ul&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;During the scheme you will work across a number of different areas to learn about the different facets of our network and become skilled in various disciplines.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Contact Systems&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;There are various tasks here. You could be measuring the height and stagger of Overhead Line Equipment (&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;OLE&lt;/span&gt;) to make sure the &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;OLE&lt;/span&gt; is aligned properly. If there&amp;#8217;s an incident, you may be called upon to help get the line re-opened. All the time we carry out lineside inspections and repairs to ensure equipment is always working correctly. We also have to check and fix the bonding cables (the ones that lie on the ballast); and when engineering work is to be carried out, we have to carry out the isolations and earthings to make sure work can be done safely.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Distribution&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;This involves everything from installing and maintaining electrical supplies (mainly for overhead lines or conductor rails) and testing high-voltage protection systems, to inspecting and maintaining high and low voltage power supply equipment ? such as transformers, switchgear and cables. With the electrical supply operating in so many different areas, you could be working everywhere from swing bridges to signal boxes.&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;Plant&lt;/p&gt;

	&lt;p&gt;We also operate a large range of electrical and mechanical line side equipment to support the network. This includes electrical point heating to ensure that points do not freeze in winter; standby generators for back-up power for signalling equipment and control centres, track and tunnel drainage pumping systems; and electrical supplies to equipment rooms and signal boxes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.electrojob.co.uk/job/15/network-rail-advanced-electrical-apprenticeship-at-network-rail/&quot;&gt;Apply to this job&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</description>
