CAM 1181 Welding & Metal Joining II
This course, the second course in this series, on welding and metal joining will dive further into the this career field providing further in-depth hands-on labs which will include MIG, TIG, Stick (ARC), and Ox-acetylene use along with other types of metal joining options and instruction to include sheet metal layout, shearing, bending, riveting, brazing and spot welding. This course will include a deeper understanding of design and blueprints along with manual machining integration and new fabrication techniques like waterjet and laser technology. The student will apply critical thinking and problem solving skills to achieve the end results required using blue prints, verbal instructions and a combination of both. Two classroom, two lab hours per week.
