Composites Technology — NSC STEM Pathways – OLI
Learn about composites fabrication, assembly, repair; CNC machining; and composite manufacturing. Composites students are prepared for entry-level positions in industries including aviation, marine, recreation, green energy, and manufacturing.
The National STEM Consortium’s (NSC) Composites Technology Pathway is a one-year, 30-credit hybrid course (mixture of online and face-to-face) consisting of 16 mini-courses. The entire Pathway consists of a set of materials a school or institution can customize for their program’s or students’ needs.
Created through a collaboration with the OPEN Platform+ program, the National STEM Consortium academic certificate in Composites Technology is built on a 30-semester-credit model and includes two tracks: (1) Composites Fabrication, Assembly, and Repair, and (2) CNC Machining and Composite Manufacturing. Graduates are prepared for entry-level positions in industries including aviation, marine, recreation, green energy, and manufacturing.
These materials are available as an OLI course.
