This certificate prepares graduates for entry level manufacturing positions. Emphasis is placed upon measurement, hydraulics, pneumatics, electric motors, and mechanical and electrical drives. Basic skills in blueprint reading and mathematics are also included in this program.
Develops a basic understanding of units of measurement and measurement techniques used in the manufacturing industry. Fundamentals of creating technical drawings and various manufacturing skills. Research in careers, history and current events in the manufacturing industry.
Continuation of TEC 046. Students continue study of hydraulics, pneumatics, electrical systems, mechanical drive systems, automated material handling (robotics), quality control systems, machining, and computer aided drafting.
This class is a continuation of TEC047. Heaviest concentration is on electrical theory, motors and controls. Additional time will be spent on Quality Assurance, Fluid Power, and Mechanical Drive Systems.
This class is a continuation of TEC 049. Heaviest concentration is on programmable logic controllers. Additional time will be spent on fluid power, mechanical drive systems and electrical motor controls.
Focuses on basic arithmetic and calculations necessary for solving shop oriented problems involving geometric figures, formulas and algebra. Students draw graphs. A scientific calculator is required, so there is little or no memorization.
This course provides students with orientation for transitioning from education to careers including interview techniques, resume writing, job search strategies, personal growth and finance.
Fundamentals, principles and practices of industrial technology. Covers basic through advanced procedures associated with current technology. Advanced work is adjusted to special interest groups. (Repeatable 3 Times)
