Introductory TIG (GTAW) Welding Processes
Non-Credit Course
Program Overview
This course introduces students to Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding, also known as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). It covers the core principles, safety protocols, and essential techniques needed to weld a variety of metals, including mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
Emphasis is placed on developing hands-on skills, with particular focus on precision welding, electrode selection, joint preparation, and the use of inert shielding gases.
Through a mix of classroom instruction and practical lab work, students will build a solid foundation in equipment setup, torch operation, welding in different positions, and the fundamentals of weld inspection.
