TOTAL SEMESTER HOURS 11 13 24 16 TOTAL SEMESTER HOURS REQUIRED FOR CERTIFICATE 16 C 50 15 0 Computer-Aided Drafting Technology – Certificate (Located at COA - Currituck) CONCENTRATION OVERVIEW The Computer Integrated Machining curriculum is designed to develop skills in the theory and safe use of hand tools, power machinery, computerized equipment, and sophisticated precision inspection instruments. Students learn to interpret blueprints, setup manual and CNC machines, perform basic and advanced machining operations, and make decisions to ensure that work quality is maintained. Upon completion of this concentration, graduates will be able to qualify for employment opportunities for machining technicians exist in manufacturing industries, public institutions, governmental agencies, and in a wide range of specialty machining job shops. Student Learning Outcomes - Upon completion of the program, students will: 1. Demonstrate the safe use of hand tools, power machinery, and other equipment and tools relevant to metals manufacturing by producing assigned projects that require specific machining skills. 2. Make decisions that demonstrate knowledge of precision measuring tools by performing quality control inspection procedures on projects. 3. Program computer numerical machine tools to produce accurate and functional machine parts. 4. Demonstrate how to visualize and interpret technical drawings to include line types, orthographic projections, dimensions, and notes. Partnership: N/
