THE PROGRAM
If you are looking for a 9-5 job pushing paper behind a desk, this program is NOT for you. But if you like the idea of putting things together or cutting them in two, you should give this a try. Small, medium, and large facilities throughout the Mid-South are in desperate need of entry-level welders, and this program will give you the training you need to find a quality job.
Based on American Welding Society skill standards, ASU Mid-South’s Welding technology program provides theory and practical skills application in welding and cutting. You can develop real-world welding skills in arc welding, plasma and air carbon arc cutting, and oxyacetylene, TIG, MIG, and gas metal and flux-core arc welding. In the process, you will also learn welding inspection testing principles and fabrication techniques.
*Welding Certificates and Certification: Welding classes are offered day and night, with certificate programs in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (Stick), Gas Metal Arc Welding (MIG), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (TIG), and Flux Core Arc Welding. Each program offers American Welding Society (AWS) certifications, which are highly recognized by companies across the world.
