Learn to be a “maker” to produce things we hold, see and use every day!
The manufacturing industry is involved in producing almost everything we see and use every day, and students in the Manufacturing Technology-Machining program learn to become certified CNC machinists, “makers” of almost anything. With plenty of employment options, professional machinists are detail oriented problem solvers. Students quickly learn to understand the impact they have on the vital US manufacturing community. Blueprint reading, applied math, precision measurement, and proper tool usage are tools of the trade, as they learn to write programs from blueprints, work with computer-aided-machining (CAM) software, and learn quality control techniques in operating engine lathes, vertical mills, computer numerical control turning centers (lathes), and CNC machining centers (mills).
