Subject Contents

Engineering Science

Engineering Science teaches scientific principles, the use of correct science terminology, application of SI units, use of symbols, formulas and abbreviations.

Mathematics

The content is presented with an engineering approach in conjunction with a highly supported integrated dimension for the other three subjects that follow. The mathematical subject provides an opportunity to gain a better understanding and enhance practical skills in a work environment.

Welding

This course will focus on gaining competency in FCAW and GMAW application on ferrous steel plate in the flat, horizontal, vertical, up, and overhead welding position. Students will weld on steel plate and other common materials using the proper welding techniques on butt, lap, tee, and corner joints in all four welding positions. AWS standards will apply for welds on butt, tee, lap, and corner joints.

Plating & Structural Drawing

Engineering Drawings teaches students to identify the function of engineering drawings, and interpret these drawings as an accurate and meaningful manner of communication.
