The Manufacturing Technology program uses an
occupational cluster approach centered around three separate certificate progams: Welding Technology, Precision Machining, and Heavy
Equipment Diesel Maintenance. The student will select an area of emphasis from the
three certificate programs for the first year. Students will return the
second year to complete the general education component of
fifteen semester credits and cross train for fifteen semester credits in a
series of elective courses from one or both of the other Manufacturing Technology
programs. |
