Welding Technology - AWS

About

The mission of the Welding Technology Program is to prepare the student for entry into the labor market as a beginning welder. Students will learn to perform entry level proficiency in shielded metal arc, gas metal arc, flux core arc and gas tungsten arc welding. Materials to be joined include carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum. The students will be using sheet, plate and pipe, incorporating both fillet and groove weldments in the 1F-2F and 1G-4G positions for sheet/plate, as well as both 2G & 6G positons for pipe. AWS, ASME and API qualification/certification paths are available for those that chose to pursue those options.
