Welding courses enable students to gain knowledge of the properties, uses, and applications of various metals, skills in various processes used to join and cut metals (such as oxyacetylene, shielded metal, metal inert gas, and tungsten arc processes), and experience in identifying, selecting, and rating appropriate techniques. Welding courses often include instruction in interpreting blueprints or other types of specifications.

Students in welding have the opportunity to enroll in the Advanced Manufacturing Program. Advanced Manufacturing Program (AMP) is an Early College Program​, dedicated to advanced manufacturing in the fields of automotive repair technology, precision machining, and welding. The program offers students the opportunity to earn up to 18 college credits at no cost to them or their parents, through a dual enrollment format. The college partner for the AMP program is Alfred State College.
