The Industrial Millwright Technology Program prepares a
student for an exciting entry-level career as an industrial
mechanic in manufacturing, mining, construction, and the
service industry. The student receives technical training in
mechanical operations, fluid power, machine tool operation,
preventive/ predictive maintenance, electrical theory, welding
processes, and industrial heating and cooling.
Upon successful completion of the Industrial Millwright
Technology Program the student will possess the skills
necessary to be able to diagnose and repair mechanical,
electrical, fluid and air handling systems found in most
industrial, agricultural, mining, construction, and service industries. A graduate can work in all
locations that use machinery to produce a product or service including steel mills,
paper mills, mining operations, gravel quarries, universities,
schools, textile mills, food processing plants, automotive plants,
shipyards, power plants, hospitals, aerospace industry, and
office buildings/complexes.
Completion of the certificate program gives you the option of moving on to the Associate
of Applied Science degree in Industrial Millwright Technology.

Suggested Course Sequence
| NOTICE: The following sequence is simply a suggestion and may not be appropriate
for all students. For example, some students will have to take from one to four developmental
courses before they are prepared to take specific college level courses. Many students will
need to take fewer courses each semester due to obligations in their lives. Full-time status
is 12 credits per semester, but many programs provide students with the flexibility of taking
fewer credits. Meeting with an adviser is crucial to establishing the best course sequence
for each student. |
