The Machine Shop Technology program is designed to prepare individuals for employ- MTT 140 Basic CNC Turning Program 3 3 3
ment in the industry as a machinist. Machinists produce precision metal parts, using MTT 243 CNC Turning Lab I 3 3 3
machine tools such as lathes, drill presses, and milling machines. Also, machinists and SPH 106 Fundamentals of Oral Communication or
tool programmers set up and operate a wide variety of machine tools, using their knowl- SPH 107 Fundamentals of Public Speaking 3 3
edge of the working properties of metals. They plan and carry out the operations needed Natural Science and Mathematics Elective 3
to make machined products that meet precise specifications. Students in the Machine
Shop Technology program manufacture, assemble, and repair metal parts, subassemblies, *Stackable Short Term Certificate: CNC Turning - 9 hours
and complete machines. Increasingly the machines used to produce these metal parts are
numerically controlled and most of those are computer numerically controlled (CNC). Fourth Term
Students in this program are required to participate in 3rd party credentialing such as MSP 113 Computer Numerical Control Milling 3 3 3
NIMS and NOCTI activities prior to graduation. CNC 213 Advanced CNC Milling 3 3 3
