Machine Tool Technology Certificate

The major objectives of the machine tool technology program at Casper College are:

To provide training in machine tool operation, processes, tooling, and allied areas, so that the graduate may obtain employment within machine shops or maintenance shops.
To provide a background for those students who will be continuing their education for a four-year degree in related fields. The machine tool technology certificate program consists of 39 credits within the technical areas. It has been organized for full-time or part-time attendance. Full-time students can complete the certificate requirements within two semesters.

Note: To graduate with a certificate or degree, students must earn a “C” or better in all major requirements.
