Classes in weld

WELD 201 Beginning Welding 2.0 units
Description: This course is an introduction to Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Oxy Acetylene Welding (OAW) and Oxy Fuel Cutting (OFC) and Plasma Arc Cutting (PAC) of steel materials. Content includes safe practices, equipment use, metal identification, and basic practices in metal repair and maintenance.

Student Learning Outcomes:

1. Demonstrate and describe proper safety practices when working in a welding environment.
2. Apply integrated knowledge with incremental skill improvement resulting in functional application of welding techniques.


WELD 202 Intermediate Welding 2.0 units
Description: This course continues training in arc, gas, and oxy acetylene welding and oxy fuel and plasma arc cutting; as well as introduces Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). Content includes an introduction to welding symbols, fabrication, and a continued emphasis on safe practices and equipment use. ADVISORY: WELD 201.

Student Learning Outcomes:

1. Demonstrate proper safety practices when working in a welding environment.
2. Demonstrate improved welding skills in the various types of welding formats.
