MACHINING TECHNOLOGY Memphis is second in the nation in the total number of medical device manufacturers operating within its borders and neighboring areas. Local medical device manufacturers have joined forces to form the GMMDC (Greater Memphis Medical Device Council) which articulates the needs of its member companies to other entities in Memphis and the surrounding area, such as colleges, trade and vocational schools, high schools, and local businesses and industries. A recent report by the GMMDC indicated that there is an immediate need for over 100 skilled and trained machinists in the Memphis area. There is also very strong evidence that there will continue to be a need for machinists and other metal fabrication and finishing workers for many years to come.

What do I learn in the program?All of the machining courses in the two technical certificates described below are taught using OSHA safety standards and NIMS (National Institute for Metalworking Skills) machining standards. Students completing both of the technical certificates will receive hands-on and classroom training in manual machining, basic and advanced CNC machining, CAD/CAM machining, along with other training topics such as safety, shop math, precision measurement techniques, print reading, GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing), engineering materials, 2D and 3D CAD drawing, and many others.

How Much Could I Earn?As reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2015, the median pay for machinists was $42,110 per year (approximately $20.25 per hour).SOURCE:www.bls.gov/ooh/production/machinists-and-tool-and-die-makers.htm

The Machining Fundamentals Technical Certificate is designed to equip graduates with the basic machining skills that will enable them to find entry-level positions in the machining and metal fabrication fields. Emphasis is placed on manual machining and basic CNC topics. Visit the current academic catalog page for the Machining Fundamentals Technical Certificate

The Advanced Machining Technical Certificate is designed to equip graduates with advanced machining skills that will enable them to find higher-level positions in the machining and metal fabrication fields. Emphasis is placed on advanced CNC machining and CAD/CAM topics. Visit the current academic catalog page for the Advanced Machining Technical Certificate
