Certificate: Manufacturing
Program Description
This one year certificate familiarizes the student with machine tools and manufacturing processes. Graduates of the program will be able to safely and efficiently work with traditional manufacturing tools to perform a variety of tasks such as drill, cut, deburr, tap, mill, grind, thread, face, turn, bore, turn a taper as well as perform machining set-ups, and measure using precision inspection equipment and gages.
In addition to traditional machining, the student will also be able to work safely and efficiently with CNC machines to perform a variety of tasks such as drill, cut, deburr, tap, mill, grind, thread, turn, taper and perform machine set-ups. This program also covers the reading and interpreting of manufacturing blueprints along with the application of principles from the machinery handbook. Finally, fundamentals in the implementation of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) in manufacturing and the use of CAD software for drawing and animating simple mechanical components and linkages will be covered in the program.
This certificate program is Not eligible for federal financial aid.
