program provides students with the opportunity to acquire skills,
knowledge, and experiences required to pass a standard welding
qualification test and pursue a career in an expanding and rewarding
technical field. Classroom instruction and laboratory experiences allow
students to gain scientific knowledge regarding welding ferrous and
nonferrous metals using the processes of Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW),
Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Flux Core Arc Welding (FCAW), and Gas
Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). Particular emphasis is given to the use of
decision-making and problem-solving techniques in applying science,
chemistry, mathematics, communication, and social studies concepts to solve
technological problems. Classroom instruction emphasizes safety
awareness, jobsite awareness,
prepares students for the next level, teaches
proper selection of materials according to job size and
proper care, use, and maintenance of tools and equipment.
