The Precision Manufacturing certificate program equips students with the necessary hands-on experience and foundational knowledge to qualify for entry-level positions as machine operators and quality control inspectors. In this program, students are taught both conventional machining techniques and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining techniques. The programs were developed in response to Connecticut manufacturers’ needs for a highly skilled workforce to match the needs of the regional industry sector partnerships around the state of Connecticut. The student who completes the Precision Manufacturing certificate program has a choice to pursue employment or to matriculate in an associate degree program.

EnginesWe’ll teach you the tools of the trade, then immediately put them to use pulling apart and rebuilding a Cummins, CAT, or Detroit engine. Throughout the course, you’ll get familiar with troubleshooting and diagnosing; performing tune-ups on all major diesel engine brands; adjusting and running heavy-duty engines; and navigating brand-specific websites.Use precision measuring toolsRebuild and repair enginesPerform overhead valve adjustmentsGain experience in mechanical troubleshootingEngine Management SystemsWe’ll set codes on the engine you’re working on; it’ll be your job to tell us what’s wrong, utilizing manufacturers’ step-by-step diagnosis process that includes the use of websites for CAT, Cummins, and Detroit. Additionally, you’ll go through the process of understanding the concept of multiplexing and can-bus in regen and explore the latest technology for diesel management from the engine to exhaust, to diagnostics.Learn the basics of electrical theoryPractice troubleshooting using scan tools, multimeters, and other equipment and industry toolsUnderstand the basics to circuits, starting and charging systems, multiplexing, and morePowertrainsThis phase is where we’ll lay your foundation in antilock brake systems and automatic traction control systems. We start with differentials, then move through hubs, kingpins, and steering. During the course, you’ll get to overhaul an Eaton-Fuller manual transmission; pull, inspect, and measure tolerances on clutches; pull and inspect single- and double-gear reduction differentials; work on and adjust brakes; and work on computer-controlled manual transmissions.Learn failure analysis and troubleshootingDevelop skills in clutch and transmission repair and adjustmentsWork on automatic traction control systemsFluid Power and RefrigerationIn this course, we will go over the basic understanding of hydraulics and hydraulics safety. We will cover hydrostatic drive transmissions, skid steer loaders, and repair and troubleshooting of hydraulic systems. You will learn correct use of flow meters and pressure gauges to diagnose hydraulic and hydrostatic systems. Also covered in this area are the operation, testing and servicing of in-cab air conditioning and transport refrigeration. This phase offers the opportunity to get a 608 and 609 EPA certification for HVAC service and repair.Gain hands-on experience in hydraulic system troubleshooting and repairLearn to rebuild hydraulic pumps and cylindersTroubleshoot, diagnose, and repair in-cab air conditioning and transport refrigeration systemsAdvanced Diesel:Phase IConduct proper PDI repairCreate order and parts listsLearn about dual air systemsPerform a function test Ensure ABS and brake systems are functioning correctly Phase IIPull transmissionsInspect and reinstall fuel tankPerform clutch replacement and reinstallationRun emission testing

The Architectural Design Technology (ADT) degree path will augment students' learning by coupling theory-based instruction with hands-on applications using current software. The ADT path software includes, but is not limited to, Revit Building Information Modeling (BIM), Chief Architect, with an option for Lumion, Sketch-up or NavisWorks, and AutoCad. ADT classes offer students knowledge in innovation design, formal design process, BIM, advanced critical thinking, project management, civil, and structural design. Students will obtain the skills needed to plan, develop, and produce final construction documents for residential and commercial applications.

The Mechanical Engineering Technology program is designed to prepare students through the study and application of principles from mathematics, natural sciences, and technology and applied processes based on these subjects.Course work includes mathematics, natural sciences, engineering sciences and technology.Mechanical Engineering Technology is a course of study that prepares the students to use basic engineering principles and technical skills to design, develop, test, and troubleshoot projects involving mechanical systems. Includes instruction in principles of mechanics, applications to specific engineering systems, design testing procedures, prototype and operational testing and inspection procedures, manufacturing system-testing procedures, test equipment operation and maintenance, computer applications, critical thinking, planning and problem solving, and oral and written communications. Graduates of the curriculum will find employment opportunities in the manufacturing or service sectors of engineering technology. Engineering technicians may obtain professional certification by application to organizations such as ASQ, SME, and NICET.NOTE: Upon completion of all requirements, the A.A.S. in Mechanical Engineering Technology is granted by Pitt Community College. The hours at Martin Community College are listed below.

Schoolcraft's Associate of Engineering degree is designed for students who intend to pursue a bachelor's degree in engineering. It allows the student to establish a strong academic foundation in mathematics and science and complete courses to fulfill general education requirements-all before moving on to a bachelor's degree program at another college or university.

The Electrical Applications (EA) program contains seven (7) courses, 30 weeks, and 28 semester credit hours. The objective of the EA program is to train and prepare students for entry-level or trainee positions in the residential, commercial, and industrial electrical industry. Students completing this program should have an understanding of mechanical and electrical principles, residential and commercial wiring applications, voice, video, and data cabling systems, the application of motors, lighting, and devices that control them as well as exposure to various types of transformers. Upon successful completion of this program, students will receive a Diploma.

This course provides students with a foundational understanding of CNC milling machine operation, focusing on G-code programming, basic work holding techniques, and the use of the Haas CNC control system. Students will gain hands-on experience in setting up and machining components using G-code, while developing the skills necessary to effectively operate a Haas CNC mill. A strong emphasis will also be placed on mechanical blueprint reading, which will support students’ success in understanding and executing precise machining tasks.

The Technical Studies degree program is designed to provide recognition for work and life experience while assisting individuals in their preparation for career advancement or change. This program is designed to provide skills for personal, professional and community improvement. The program is highly individualized and flexible. As many as 20 credits may be awarded for work and life experience including military experience, trade/proprietary school preparation, apprenticeship programs, structured on-the-job training and the like. Graduates will be awarded the associate in applied science degree upon successful completion of this program. Technical Studies has been designed as a first-degree program and therefore cannot be pursued as a second degree at DCCC.
