Machine Tool Technology
Associate in Science Degree
The Machinist one-year certificate program is designed to
train students in the operation of a variety of precision metal
removal tools, from small hand tools to machine tools such as:
drill presses, lathes, milling machines, and grinders. Graduates
acquire basic skills to setup and operate all standard machine
tools and machine parts from blueprint specifications.
Graduates are also introduced to computerized numerical
control (CNC) machines. In addition, students learn basic
hand skills including general machining techniques required
to setup and operate all standard machine tools for the manufacture
of parts from blueprint specifications.
Students use a variety of computer software applications to
draw, design, and program CNC machines, and application
work focuses on jigs, fixtures, and punch and die work.
