焊接技术

你 enjoy working with your hands or using high-tech industrial equipment? 你 picture yourself as a builder or a problem solver? The two-year program covers both theoretical and practical training in basic and advanced welding techniques, giving you all the skills you need to graduate and put your skills and passions to work in an in-demand career in today’s construction 贸易s and fabrication shops.

建立稳固的职业生涯

Welding is a very sophisticated and technical science that requires mental application as well as hands-on abilities.

Your time is split between classroom learning (math, English and communications skills) and time in the shop practicing shield metal arc welding, gas metal arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding, pipe welding and fabrication.
