Front Range Community College

A 60-credit Associate of Applied Science designed for entry-level welding, fabrication, and manufacturing work. The four-semester full-time plan covers cutting, safety, blueprint reading, fabrication practices, Stick, MIG, TIG, and flux-cored welding, along with mathematics, communication, science, and electives. A part-time plan can be completed in eight semesters over approximately three years.

A 28-credit certificate combining welding safety, cutting, MIG welding, blueprint reading, layout and fabrication with CNC plasma cutting, robotic welding, CAD/CAM cutting, and a capstone. It is designed for entry-level manufacturing and automation work and offers opportunities for multiple industry certifications, although the official source does not identify them as AWS credentials.

A 37-credit certificate covering safety, cutting, Stick, TIG, MIG, flux-cored welding, blueprint reading, layout, design, and metal fabrication. The full-time sequence spans fall, spring, and summer and prepares students for entry-level fabrication, welding, and manufacturing work.

A 33-credit certificate covering shop safety, cutting, Stick, MIG, TIG, and flux-cored welding. The two-semester curriculum is intended for entry-level welding, fabrication, and manufacturing work and includes an optional code-welding elective path.

A 16-credit part-time certificate combining safety and cutting with two-dimensional design or SolidWorks, an introductory TIG or MIG course, and creative welding. Students design and construct welded sculpture while learning fabrication techniques, metal coloring, and texture.

A nine-credit certificate covering welding safety plus MIG and flux-cored welding. Students practice welding in all positions and on varied joints and metals, supporting entry-level work in welding, fabrication, and manufacturing.

A nine-credit certificate covering safety and beginning and advanced TIG welding. Students practice TIG in all positions and on varied joint configurations and metals for entry-level welding, fabrication, and manufacturing work.

A five-credit certificate focused on welder safety, oxy-fuel equipment setup, and metal cutting and gouging operations. It supports entry-level work in welding, fabrication, and manufacturing, but the current plan does not document one of the dataset's canonical arc-welding process categories.

A 13-credit certificate covering safety, equipment inspection and minor repair, operating parameters, electrode selection, and basic through advanced Stick welding. The part-time sequence spans fall and spring and prepares students for entry-level welding, fabrication, and manufacturing work.

A nine-credit introductory certificate consisting of welder safety and two advisor-selected four-credit welding courses. Available choices include cutting, beginning or intermediate Stick, introductory TIG, or MIG, giving students a focused foundation for entry-level welding, fabrication, and manufacturing work.
