Machinists are skilled craftspersons who use precision metal cutting and grinding machines to fabricate high quality parts. They have a keen and intricate understanding of the tools required to measure, cut, drill, form, shape, grind and finish metal, plastic or similar materials.

In the Machinist program, students will learn not only how to produce parts based on engineered drawings, but also how to diagnose and address mechanical malfunctions. In a fast-paced mechanical world where industrial production is at the forefront of innovation, more businesses are relying on machinists to help maximize their overall performance and output.
