FABRICATION STUDIES (WELDING)

Fabrication 10 (5 credits)

• In this introductory level course, students will learn safety, tool use and process at the basic level as they build various projects. Some modules may include: Basic Electric Welding, Oxyacetylene Welding, Semi-Automated Welding (Mig & Flux core welding) and Bar and Tubular Fabrication projects. The underlying emphasis through the three years is learning to work with both hands simultaneously, a skill that transfers to many fields. 

Fabrication 20 (5 credits)
Prerequisite: Fabrication 10

• In this intermediate welding course, students will learn fabrication techniques at the intermediate level as they take more control over tools in the shop setting. Projects become more complicated as students work more independently. Topics will include: Oxyfuel Welding, Stick Welding, Gas Metal Arc Welding (mig welding), Flux Core Arc Welding, Custom Fabrication (project design and fabrication), Thermal Cutting (Plasma and Oxyfuel) and CNC Plasma Cutting 

Fabrication 30 (5 credits)
Prerequisite: Fabrication 20

• In this senior welding course, students will learn advanced techniques and primarily work independently on individual fabrication projects. Topics will include Arc Welding 3, Arc Welding 4, Gas Metal Arc Welding 2, Flux Core Arc Welding 2, Custom Fabrication (projects), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (TIG), CNC Plasma Cutting and Aluminum Welding.
