Manufacturing Technology Associate in Science Degree
PROGRAM CODE: 2S03842
The Manufacturing Technology Associate in Science Degree incorporates courses from a number of departments within the Technology and Engineering Division. This degree typically leads to intermediate to advanced level technical careers as a machinist, toolmaker, CNC operator, CNC programmer, manufacturing engineer, process engineer, maintenance technician, field service technician, fabrication technician, machine builder, welders, designers, design engineers, CAD/CAM engineer as well as a number of other manufacturing, engineering, and service positions. A student pursuing the Manufacturing Technology major must take the required courses in addition to a concentration in one or more of the major areas. The areas of concentration are Drafting, Machine Technology, and Welding. This degree requires 30-34 units in the major in addition to other graduation requirements. At least one-half of the units towards the major must be completed at Fullerton College.
