Students will gain the necessary theoretical and practical applications to design and assemble computer-controlled machines. The areas of study will provide a foundation in 3D design and printing, programming an embedded controller (Arduino) or micro-computer (Raspberry Pi), and fabricate with woods, metals, and plastics. Upon completion of the required courses with at least a \"C\" or \"P\" (pass) grade in each course, the student will be eligible for a Job Skills Certificate.\n\n### Program Learning Outcomes\n\n-   1\\. Upon successful completion of the program, the student will be able to utilize 3D modeling software to create technical drawings that can be 3D printed.\n\n-   2\\. Upon successful completion of the program, the student will be able to generate the necessary program to control devices using a computer.\n\n-   3\\. Upon successful completion of the program, the student will be able to demonstrate proficiency with basic principles of machining and fabrication.\n\n### Program Requirements"
