Course summary
This program familiarizes the student with machine tools and manufacturing processes, develops skills in the operation of computer aided drafting software, and provides hands-on experience setting up, programming and operating computer numerical control (CNC) machines and advanced inspection equipment. Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) and statistical process control (SPC) are skills integrated within the curriculum to prepare the student for employment in computerized industrial machining operations. Graduates can expect to find employment as CNC programmers, machinists, tool makers, and quality assurance technicians, or move on to complete a four-year degree in Manufacturing Engineering.
