ENGR 0113 - INTRODUCTION TO BASIC MACHINING PROCESSES
- Credits: 3
- 188 hours over 6-week or 15-week sessions
- This course combines classroom, shop, and machine time to develop an individual with manual machining and tooling skills. Conventional machining includes operation of mills, lathes, grinders; use of micrometers and calipers; applied math through trigonometry and blueprint reading.
ENGR 0130 - INTRODUCTION TO CNC OPERATIONS AND THEORY
- Credits: 3
- 188 hours over 6-week or 15-week sessions
- This training course combines classroom, shop, and machine time to develop a graduate with Computer Numerical Control (CNC) programming skills.
