Some sample units will be erected. A thorough study of drive transmissions, hydraulics, and electrical systems along with the internal combustion engine. Six-hundred hours of supervised work experiences in the student's chosen field. The student is paid the going wage for that type of work. The student receives practical experience doing assigned duties, operating various machines, and performing other functions necessary to the job.
Students learn how to apply much of the technology learned at the college.
The work-experience program is an integral part of the technology education program, so this should not be taken as a source of income but rather as a learning experience. The program is jointly covered by the college, the advisor, the employer, and the student. The training period takes place between the student's first and second years or at another time as worked out by the student and instructor. Hours of credit are arranged jointly by the employer, student, and instructor.
