The Manufacturing/Machinist Associate in Applied Arts and Sciences degree or Certificate of Proficiency is designed to prepare qualified individuals for entry into the job market as a Manufacturing Technician. The program uses the innovative I-BEST approach to instruction, so students learn math for manufacturing with extra help as needed. Shoreline Community College works closely with local advisory committees comprised of industry professionals to ensure students receive the knowledge and skills currently in demand by employers in the field. This is an intensive program covering the basic set up and operation of machines, blueprint reading, shop mathematics, machine tool theory, inspection, surface plate techniques, and Statistical Process Control (SPC). Specialist courses include Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM), Computer Numerical Control Programming (CNC), and Rapid Prototyping. Students will be involved in producing and machining industry parts.
AAAS requires completion of the Certificate of Proficiency. Many classes are variable credit and lab time is arranged with the instructor. ESL students should be at level 4 or 5 to enter the program. Please work closely with instructors or program advisors.
