Welding Technology
The Welding Technology program is designed to train individuals for entry into the field of welding as industrial welders, welding apprentices, or check welders. Courses have been developed to instruct the student in mathematics and welding print reading in order to enhance the welding student's understanding of the basic requirements of the job. Welding symbols are also studied. Students start the program with a basic review of various basic math applications and an introduction to oxy-fuel cutting and welding processes. The oxy-fuel processes provide a solid foundation for all other types of welding applications including Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). The use of destructive and non-destructive testing will ensure students have a thorough understanding of what constitutes a quality weld. As students master the various welding procedures, they are tested for certification in two procedures. |
