In the CNC Machining program, students learn the skills they need to be successful in industrial settings. Precision machine parts are vital components in a wide variety of industries. Students learn to turn a piece of raw metal stock into a useful machine part, accurate to within a few thousandths of an inch of the design specifications. Students also acquire the technical skills needed to run milling machines, lathes, and CNC (Computer Numerically Controlled) equipment. The CNC Machining program is part of the Manufacturing Career Cluster.
