Under the supervision of the instructor the student will build a project which will require the knowledge and skills from all previous welding courses. The student will also be required to write a research paper.
A course designed for on-the-job-training at local welding shops to provide the student with opportunities to use competencies developed in the classroom and laboratory. Emphasis is on preparation for full-time employment.
A specialized program of study directly related to the department's area of expertise. The course is arranged between a faculty member and student and takes into consideration the needs, interests and background of the student.
Courses are offered to accommodate special interests of students and/or faculty. Typically, the course will cover new material not currently contained in the curriculum at ECC.
This course is designed to prepare students to make the transition from school to work and to provide students with the basic skills to manage their careers effectively. The course focuses on how personality traits effect relationships with coworkers and managers, as well as overall career advancement. Topics covered include self-assessment, analysis of the job market, analyzing companies, the job hunting process, including resume presentation, techniques and job interviewing skills, the basics of networking, professional dress codes, and code of ethics. Students must be in their graduation semester.
