Program description - September 2025
Are you interested in operating and troubleshooting automated and robotic welding systems? Do you enjoy hands-on learning in a state-of-the-art facility? This program might be right for you! As a student in this unique program, you will be provided the opportunity to work with welding automation and robotics systems including: GMAW (MIG) and spot-welding applications, CAD/CAM applications with CNC thermal cutting, and off-line robotic simulation programming applications. The curriculum builds on welding technology with a broader knowledge in manufacturing methods and industrial automation. As a student in this program, you will develop your skills through active and project-based learning in our state-of-the-art facility, using modern equipment. This program combines theoretical knowledge with applied skills in the control of robotic and automated equipment using electronics, programmable automation controllers, computers, hydraulics, and pneumatics. Emphasis is placed on effective techniques for designing, modifying, installing, testing, maintaining, repairing, and troubleshooting equipment and systems. This program has a common first two years with the Welding Engineering Technology - Inspection program. The Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists (OACETT) conditionally recognizes this program as meeting all the academic requirements for certification in the Certified Engineering Technologist (CET) category. As a graduate of this program, you would have covered all the learning outcomes for Level 1 of the Welder (456A) and Metal Fabricator – Fitter (437A) apprenticeship programs in Ontario. If you decide to pursue an apprenticeship in either trade, you may be exempt from this level of in-school training. The optional co-op stream includes four consecutive four-month work terms. For more information contact the Program Coordinator at welding@conestogac.on.ca.
