Earning an AAS Degree in Welding and Fabrication prepares students for a variety of jobs in the welding and metal working industry. Graduates leave well prepared for careers in areas such as production welding, equipment manufacturing, general fabrication, construction or custom fabrication. Students will develop industry level skills in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). These welding skills will be coupled with courses in print reading, fabrication techniques, machine tool operation, metal forming and the construction of assemblies, giving students many different avenues in the welding and fabrication industry. The degree allows students to become eligible for specialized welding certifications through the American Welding Society (AWS).
