MNT 100Manufacturing Safety3
This course provides an introduction to the principles of safety, guidelines for the design of equipment, and explanations of why certain practices should or should not be followed in the manufacturing environment. Students evaluate human reactions in normal and abnormal conditions, and compare features required for safe working conditions to industry standards. Students sit for the OSHA 30 General Industry Certification Examination. Semester Offered: F/S level English, MAT 095 with a grade of "C" or higher or QMAT placement score > 21
This course introduces computer-aided design (CAD) software. Students develop an understanding of the commands needed to produce a two-dimensional drawing. Topics include drawing set up, geometry creating, editing functions, layer techniques, dimensioning, model and paper space, title block creation, and plotting a completed drawing. Other related topics include multi-view drawings, selection and arrangement of orthographic views, section and auxiliary views, and isometric and oblique drawings. Students gain proficiency in the operation of a PC-based CAD system and a functional understanding of basic computer-aided drafting techniques. Semester Offered: F/S "C" or higher or QMAT placement score > 21
This course focuses on computer aided design topics needed to produce parts, assemblies and drawings using industry prevalent Solid Modeling software. Students become familiar with screen layout, cursor feedback symbols, feature manager, constraint geometry, editing functions, and Q U I N SIGAM O N D CO M M U N IT Y CO LLEG E 401
This course provides a project-oriented approach to the Engineering Design Process. Students will experience design concepts through to prototype manufacture and beyond using modern digital manufacturing equipment. Students will document their own journey, keeping accurate records of design decisions, while planning and tracking project management goals and milestones. Students are encouraged to work in teams and use a collaborative approach to their learning. A final media presentation will wrap up this course. Semester Offered: SU
This course focuses on Metrology, Inspection, and Quality systems in play in modern manufacturing companies. Students use precision measurement, as well as CMM and Optical methods, to promote the validation of high precision parts. Students explore basic concepts of lean manufacturing and statistical process control (SPC) methods to determine and support quality control requirements. Semester Offered: S Please Note: Three hours lecture
This course introduces some of the fundamentals of machine tool technologies. It is focused on hands- on activities that are essential to a 402 CO LLEG E C ATALO G successful career in a manufacturing industry. Students learn from highly qualified instructors how to use bench working practices as well as operate lathes and milling machines. A variety of assignments challenge students to produce high precision parts while learning mechanical inspection techniques. Finally, students are introduced to the fundamentals of CNC programming and CNC equipment. Students sit for the Haas CNC Operator Certification. Semester Offered: F/S "C" or higher or QMAT placement score > 21
Instrumentation in Manufacturing This course analyzes modern maintenance applications along with instruments that are frequently used in manufacturing industries to monitor machinery. Students obtain a detailed understanding of modern maintenance applications and the mechanical theory behind the procedures. Emphasis is placed on the operational aspect of monitoring equipment such as pressure gauges, transducers, strain gauges, electronic recorders, and controllers with a strong emphasis placed on safety. Class projects help students develop the analytical ability necessary for the operation and maintenance of manufacturing equipment. Semester Offered: S 2026 - 2027
