Programs Offered
Do you like working with computers? Are you good at running software, using formulas in excel, or shortcuts in word? Then you may want to consider computer-integrated machining. The computer-integrated machining curriculum at Rowan-Cabarrus provides classroom and hands-on learning. Students will gain the analytical, creative and innovative skills necessary to take a production idea from an initial concept through design, development and production, resulting in a finished product.
Coursework can include manual machining, computer applications, engineering design, computer-aided drafting (CAD), computer-aided machining (CAM), blueprint interpretation, advanced computerized numeric control (CNC) equipment, basic and advanced machining operations, precision measurement and high-speed multi-axis machining.
Graduates should qualify for employment as machining technicians in high-tech manufacturing, rapid-prototyping and rapid-manufacturing industries, specialty machine shops, fabrication industries, and high-tech or emerging industries such as aerospace, aviation, medical, and renewable energy, and to sit for machining certification examinations.
I learned great skills on up-to-date equipment during my time at Rowan-Cabarrus Community College.
Thank you Rowan-Cabarrus. It was a great learning experience.
