ARTS110M - Welding for the Artist This course is an introduction to welding for the artist. The goal is for the student to develop structurally and aesthetically sound welding techniques in both arc and gas welding. These techniques will enable the art student to create both two and three dimensional artwork. Emphasis will also be placed upon safety, hands-on practice, equipment and process selection, joint design and filler metal characteristics. Students will also learn how to safely flamecut mild steel as well as bend metal using torch heat. Braze welding will also be discussed and practiced. Demonstrations in other welding processes more suitable to welding aluminum and stainless steel will be given. The art of Blacksmithing will also be introduced. (Fulfills Fine Arts requirement.)

CBAM125M - Manufacturing Fundamentals Students will explore the manufacturing process not only as a sequence of material manipulation but also as a product of management. Current managerial philosophies and their effects on every phase of manufacturing will be examined. This information will be synthesized and applied to a manufacturing model, which will allow students to test their theories on managing a manufacturing facility with limited resources. Throughout the course, emphasis will be placed on effective workplace skills including teamwork, integrity, and dependability. Prerequisite: None

AUTO1021M - Steering and Suspension Systems AUTO1021M is an in-depth study of steering and suspension systems, alignment geometry, and procedures including the service and diagnosis of these systems.
