    Prerequisite: MATH 232 or MATH 242 or an equivalent course with a grade of "C" or higher Note: Students transferring MATH 285 to the University of Kansas must have CIS 201 as a corequisite. This is a beginning course in calculus-based statistical analysis, the skill of making sense of raw data -- constructing graphical representations of data, developing models for making predictions, performing tests to determine significant change and finding intervals for population values. Students must have an understanding of calculus concepts in order to successfully complete this course. Students will learn the basics of descriptive statistics, probability, sampling, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing and linear regression. The course will stress the applications to business with emphasis on quality control. 4 hrs./wk. Students transferring MATH 285 to KU must have CIS 201 as a corequisite. Associated Costs: In addition to the course tuition, fees, and textbooks, this course has additional expense considerations that are estimated to be $0 to $100.

    Upon completion of this course the student should be able to identify, operate, maintain, and explain the proper use of power equipment and the operation of several selected metal fabrication hand tools common to a welding fabrication shop. Instructors will demonstrate the safe use of primary and secondary tools and equipment. The student will be required to provide ANSI-Z-87 safety glasses and other basic personal protective equipment (PPE). This course is recommended for students who have never had an industrial arts or shop class. 1 hr lecture, 1.5 hr lab/wk.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisite or corequisite: MFAB 120 or MFAB 127 Upon successful completion of this course, the student should be able to perform oxy-fuel cutting (OFC), oxy-fuel welding (OFW) and brazing, shielded metal arc welding (SMAW). The SMAW portion of the course will cover positions but will be limited to AWS U-bend tests with backing and fillet welds. All welds will be tested according to industry standards. The student will be required to provide ANSI Z87 safety glasses and may be expected to provide other basic hand tools and/or equipment. 1 hr. lecture, 6 hrs. lab/wk. Associated Costs: In addition to the course tuition, fees, and textbooks, this course has additional expense considerations that are estimated to be $30 to $150.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: MFAB 121 This course is a continuation of Introduction to Welding. The course will cover more advanced projects in oxyacetylene, cutting, shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) and carbon arc cutting with air (CAC-A). The SMAW process will be used to weld v-groove butt joints in the flat, horizontal, vertical up and overhead positions, with root and face AWS U-bend test being performed on AWS open root joints without backing weld made in the vertical and overhead positions. AWS welder qualification/certification will be awarded to students successfully performing U-bend tests to code. The student will be required to provide ANSI Z87 safety glasses and may be expected to provide other basic hand tools and/or equipment. 1 hr. lecture, 6 hrs. lab/wk. Associated Costs: In addition to the course tuition, fees, and textbooks, this course has additional expense considerations that are estimated to be $30 to $150.
  • 2.00 Credits

    Upon successful completion of this course, the student should be able to identify various welding processes used by industries. Standard shop and maintenance welding processes will be taught and demonstrated. Welds will be tested and inspected according to industry standards. This course can be used by an individual company to train or upgrade train employees and can be customized to fit individual needs. Artists, hobbyist, automotive students or first-time welders will benefit from this class. 1 hr. lecture, 1.5 hrs. lab/wk. Associated Costs: In addition to the course tuition, fees, and textbooks, this course has additional expense considerations that are estimated to be $30 to $150.
  • 4.00 Credits

    Prerequisite or corequisite: MFAB 120 or MFAB 127 Upon successful completion of this course, the student should be able to identify the theory of gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and flux-cored arc welding (FCAW). The welding of mild steel plate will occur in all positions on both fillet and groove welds with the GMAW process. Standard AWS terms and definitions will be used. The Plasma Arc Cutting (PAC) metal cutting process will be used to conserve material use and plant preparation. A root and face guide U-bend test will be performed on selected weld test coupons. Students successfully completing U-bends will be awarded a document of standards of acceptability. The student will be required to provide ANSI Z87 safety glasses, and may be expected to provide other basic hand tools and/or equipment. 1 hr. lecture, 6 hrs. lab/wk. Associated Costs: In addition to the course tuition, fees, and textbooks, this course has additional expense considerations that are estimated to be $30 to $150.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Prerequisite: MFAB 121 or MFAB 130 Upon successful completion of this course, the student should be able to perform oxyfuel cutting (OFC), shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and plasma arc cutting (PAC). Basic blueprint and standard AWS welding symbols will be introduced. Selected welds and assignments will be tested according to industry and AWS standards. The student will be required to provide ANSI Z-87.1 approved safety glasses and may be expected to provide other basic hand tools and/or equipment as required by employers. This course is designed for individuals who have welding experience or who are employed by a company that requires welding skills.
