Program Description
The Machining Technology program trains students to use machine tools to produce complex parts used in every industry – from the machines they use, to the parts they use to produce their product. Machinists are trained to use various turning, milling, grinding, and computer numerical controlled (CNC) machines to produce complex parts. Machinists are also tasked to interpret engineer’s drawings to process the desired part. The Machining Technology program is structured to give students a solid foundation in the core fundamentals of machining and launch a career in a field that is always in high demand.
Upon program completion, students will be able to:
• Demonstrate safe operation of machine shop equipment.
• Interpret engineering drawings.
• Perform calculations common to the machining industry.
• Use appropriate measuring equipment.
• Use cutting tool geometry and theory in the machining process.
• Properly select appropriate equipment and cutting tools.
• Setup, program, and operate a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machine.
