hello

I have been offered both the Engineering Management Apprenticeship of Defence Equipment and Support of the Ministry of Defence UK and the Ford Higher Apprenticeship in Product Development.

Which should I choose?

Both fund an engineering degree. The Ministry of Defence, the role is for project management, but there are opportunities to become engineering specialist. At Ford, it is about improving the powertrain. Both are permanent positions, with similar money at the begining, but don't know about afterwards.

Ask me if you need more info.

Thanks!

thanks
I am considering Ford a bit more, due to the problem solving involved
 
Get the qualifications on their dime, and then make your mind up. By the time you graduate you'll have seen something of how the organisation works - decide if you like it or not. There are plenty engineering opportunities open across all fields at the moment. Be grateful you won't graduate in the late 80's / early 90's when any job was a godsend, however grim it was. [sad]
