The CNC Programming and Operations will prepare graduates to work as CNC /programmers and operators with manufacturers requiring high production volumes or short run batches of discrete parts. In addition to writing CNC programs, students will learn CAD design and analysis applications, create precision set-ups, select tooling, and operate a variety of CNC milling and turning centers.

The CNC Programming and Operations program offers an associate degree and three certificate options. Credit for courses in the certificates also can be applied toward the associate degree.

Scheduling and Entry Options

Day and evening classes are available. Although it is best to start in the Fall Semester when major courses begin, students may enter any term. Full-time day students usually complete requirements in five terms. Evening students should allow at least nine terms to earn the degree. General Education course requirements can be completed at any time during the program. Courses can be completed in any order subject to the completion of course prerequisites.
