Description

This program focuses on SMAW, GMAW, and GTAW welding for application in the industry. Training includes fillet welds and groove welds on plate, groove welds on pipe in all positions, and MIG welding and TIG welding.  Students will undergo multiple welding qualification tests and have the opportunity to gain an AWS certification to AWS D1.1, the structural steel welding code, as well as two ASME Section IX Boiler and Pressure Vessel, one on SMAW welded pipe and the other on GTAW welded pipe.

Program Outcomes

Upon completion, students will be able to:

  • Interpret blueprints and associated weld symbols
  • Demonstrate ability to complete tasks in a metal fabrication environment including identifying/choosing proper materials, cutting materials to proper dimensions, fitting the materials together, and tack welding the materials in the proper location
  • Demonstrate needed skills required for a Structural Plate certification test following proper procedures and meeting the requirements of the welding codes
  • Write and/or alter robotic welding programs for use in a manufacturing environment
  • Implement current GMAW welding technology in the work force
  • Implement current GTAW welding technology in the work force
  • Demonstrate needed skills required for a SMAW Pipe certification test following proper procedures and meeting the requirements of the welding codes
  • Demonstrate needed skills required for a GTAW Pipe Steel certification test following proper procedures and meeting the requirements of the welding codes
