Bachelor of Science, Welding Engineering
The welding engineer is concerned with all of the activities related to the design, production, performance, and maintenance of welded products. Interest is primarily in the manufactured or fabricated product, including material selection, manufacturing methods, tooling, operator training, quality control, performance evaluation, sales, and service. The broad range of welded products with which welding engineers deal includes structures, such as bridges and buildings; pressure vessels and heat exchangers, such as nuclear systems, boilers, chemical processing equipment, storage vessels, and transmission and distribution piping; transportation vehicles for water, land, air, and space travel; and production and processing machines of all types.
The welding engineering program provides basic liberal studies and the engineering training needed to function in the welding industry.
This is an ABET-accredited program.
