Integrated Metals Machine Tool Technology - Mt Hood Community College

Integrated Metals Machine Tool Technology from Mt Hood Community College is a Campus Associate Engineering General degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. The purpose of the two-year Machine Tool Technology curriculum is to prepare students for entry into machining occupations. Stu-dents participating in the program will spend considerable time in study and actual operation of industrial equipment and tools used by machinists . This includes emphasis on the setup and operation of CNC (computer numerical controlled) lathes and milling machines. Students will also be introduced to CAD/CAM (computer assisted design/computer assisted machining) software and its applications. The program is designed to offer a broad background of experi-ences in the metalworking occupations. Students are expected to have a set of machinist tools . They are expected to maintain a minimum grade level of ?C? on core curriculum classes to progress in the program. Employment Opportunities Many opportunities exist in the manufacturing industries for the machinist . Students completing the Machine Tool Technology program are prepared for entry into the manufacturing workforce leading to careers such as: Forest products/paper/lumber Medical technologies Transportation and aerospace technologies Computer hardware technologies Heavy industrial manufacturing Hydraulic/pneumatic equipment manufacturing And many other manufacturing settings Program Outcomes At the completion of this program, the student should be able to: Demonstrate and/or describe safe work habits and environmental issues associated with modern manufacturing settings Read, interpret and apply blueprints for the production and inspection of manufactured work pieces Demonstrate the correct application and use of precision measuring equipment commonly found in a manufacturing setting Plan and produce work pieces on a manual drill press to required blueprint specifications using common industry methods Plan and produce work pieces on a manual engine lathe to required blueprint specifications using common industry methods Plan and produce work pieces on a manual milling machine to required blueprint specifications using common industry methods Demonstrate, explain and/or apply CNC/CAD/CAM machine tools and software to produce work pieces to required blueprint specifications View more details on Mt Hood Community College .
