COURSE DESCRIPTION:
MFG-230 Welding Technology II expands on the concepts and applications presented in MFG-130. Further
exploration of the construction of welded components and the metallurgic effects on more exotic materials will
take place. Students will study the application of welding to aluminum, magnesium, copper alloys, nickel and
cobalt alloys, lead and zinc. Related safety and health considerations will be addressed.
2 lecture, 2 lab, 3 credits
Prerequisite: MFG-130 Welding Technology I

Projects are due the class meeting after they are assigned unless otherwise specified by the instructor.
Projects submitted after that date will be lowered one full letter grade per class meeting that they are late.
ATTENDANCE POLICY:
Attendance will be taken twice during each class period. The first attendance for the lecture portion of the
class will be at the beginning of each class. The second attendance, for the laboratory portion of the class
will be taken at approximately ½ hour before the end of class
If a student is absent from the lecture portion of the class, it will be recorded as an absence for the entire
class period. If a student is absent from the laboratory portion of the class, it will be recorded as an
absence from that portion of the class only.
A letter grade will be deducted from the class participation portion of your final grade for each absence
beyond three absences from either portion of a class period.
SPECIAL NOTES:
A final grade cannot be assigned for the course until all lab work
projects and examinations for the course have been completed.
Make-up examinations will be administered in accordance with the
instructor’s and division’s policy.
