5 courses with the subject WLD, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
WLD 101PRINCIPLES OF WELDING TECHNOLOGY4
This course provides an introduction to welding technology with an emphasis on developing welding safety habits for identifying health concerns and potential hazards; wearing of personal protection equipment, safety inspection of welding equipment, equipment repair and maintenance; and adhering to laboratory principles and rules. Additionally, students will be introduced to the welding certification requirements and practice oxy-fuel, plasma arc, and carbon arc- cutting processes.
WLD 105WELDING SYMBOL INTERPRETATION AND INSPECTION4
This course introduces basic elements of weld sketches, drawings, and welding symbols found in shop drawings, welding prints, and basic welding forms. Emphasis is placed on interpreting sketch and symbol information to fabricate a well- meant. Destructive and non- destructive testing methods will be developed through practicing examination, exploring their functionality and usability in the industry, and visually inspecting and measuring welds to identify discontinuities and defects. At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to utilize print reading, inspection, and testing procedures for weldments according to drawings and standards used in the industry.
WLD 120SHIELDED METAL ARC-WELDING FIT AND ALIGNMENT4
This course develops the concepts and techniques involved with the shielded metal arc-welding process, safety hazards and proper procedures, equipment set up, electrical theory and machine selection, maintenance and repair, qualification testing, and electrode selection. Students will develop the production of quality groove and fillet welds in the 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G, 1F, 2F, 3F and 4F positions. Students will build practical experience in the laboratory where a variety of welding techniques will be practiced and reinforced through self and peer inspection. At the conclusion of this course students will be prepared to perform quality groove and fillet welds using SMAW processes.
This course covers advanced concepts and techniques involved with the flux core arc welding process, as well as content such as safety hazards and proper procedures, equipment assembly, electrical theory and machine selection, maintenance and repair, and safety testing. Additionally, students will produce of quality fillet and groove welds in the, 1F, 2F, 3F, and 4F and 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G positions. Students will develop the FCAW-S process, and then build upon that foundation through practical experience in the laboratory where a variety of welding techniques will be taught through practical exercises and reinforced through self and peer inspection.
WLD 165WELDING CERTIFICATION AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT4
In this course, students will develop and practice the skills necessary to pass the certification test. Pre-testing will be administered at the completion of 30 hours in both GMAW and SMAW. Pretesting identifies students’ readiness for the official Certification Test and provides students with direction for continued lab work and hands on practice. This course will also provide the student with marketable job search techniques and skills.
