Computer Information Science:

The program prepares individuals to apply technical skills in support and design of computer systems and networks. Includes instruction in computer system analysis, design and support; as well as programming, application support and system management. The program also provides a technical foundation for college-bound students pursuing a career in information technology and provides the training for students to acquire several industrial certifications including those from Microsoft, Cisco, Novell and CompTIA. The course includes the “Cisco Academy” which provides training in computer networking and Internet Technologies, computer system support, Unix operating systems and other IT subjects.

Drafting & Design:

The Drafting and Design program will provide students with the skills that are necessary to be employable in the trade. Throughout the training at NMTCC, students will gradually master techniques in Drafting and Design. The course will start with Basic Drafting that includes Orthographic Projection, Auxiliary Views, Section Views, Dimensioning, Fasteners, Axonometric, and other basic drafting skills and will continue with learning how to use many of the latest software packages. These include the latest versions of AutoCAD, Architectural Desktop, Inventor, 3D Studio, and other related software packages.

Precision Machining:

The program prepares students for varied manufacturing opportunities. From Machine Operator to Toolmaker, from Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Operator to CNC Programmer, all start with the experience and training found in our complete precision machining lab. This program is nationally certified with the National Institute for Metalworking Skills (NIMS). It emphasizes the safe and proper operation of metalworking machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, precision grinders and drill presses. The course also includes an introduction to layout and blueprint reading and instruction in CNC machining.

Robotics & Automation:

The program prepares students for career opportunities in manufacturing environments where automated and semi-automated machines and processes are used. Students will perform activities and obtain fundamental knowledge in the following areas: electrical, electronics, robotics, mechanical systems, pneumatics, hydraulics, plc’s, blueprint reading and control systems.

Welding & Fabrication:

The program is designed to establish a broad competency detailing the minimum acceptable skill, condition, task listing and profile that encompass the job classification of an entry-level welder.

The curriculum includes shielded metal arc welding, gas metal arc welding, flux cored arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding, air carbon arc cutting and gouging, plasma cutting, oxy/fuel gas cutting, welding symbol drawing and interpretation, blue print reading, electric fundamentals, and weld inspection and testing.
