About the Program

Students in this program will learn the fundamentals aspects of manufacturing, engineering, and design processes through both academic and hands-on work. A number of projects will be completed throughout the year which are specifically designed to build the students’ ability to conceptualize a product, design that product, make that product, and, subsequently, evaluate the process.

Throughout the year, students will progressively increase knowledge in four target areas:

Precision measurement (English and Metric)
Communication (presentation, mechanical drawing,
and 3D design using SolidWorks)
Fabrication (sheet metal, welding, machining,
3D printing)
Data analysis (MS Excel or equivalent)

Students will have opportunities to earn certifications in areas such as safety, 3D design, and welding. Students also have the option of participating in annual SkillsUSA competitions. High School credits available include: VTC: Intro to Mechanical Technologies (1 Credit) Design Communication I (2 Credits) Manufacturing Processes I (2 Credits)
