Welding Technology is the application of the art and science of joining metals. Welding technologists have important roles in the fabrication and construction of nuclear and fossil fuel power plants, heavy equipment, agricultural machinery, petro-chemical plants, bridges, buildings, floating and underwater vessels, automobiles, appliances, and projects for national security. Specifically anything involving metals, from miniature electronic devices to sophisticated space projects, will require the skills of the expert welding technologist. These highly skilled members of the technological team apply practical working knowledge of welding processes, welding metallurgy and welding code standards in solving problems of welding design and production. The field is open to men and women. The OCC Welding Department is licensed to qualify (certify) welders to code standards.
