Curriculum Guide for Composites 

The Composites program is a hands-on, in-depth overview of the processes involved in the development and production of composite products. Skills include tooling, fabrication, machining, assembly, quality assurance, repair, lay-up, vacuum bagging, and cure processing of wet laminating.

Careers in Composites include these categories:

• Designer: Designs the object to be manufactured and selects the processes to create it.
• Fabricator: Creates the product, whether it be wet layup or any of the other techniques used in composite structures.
• Repair technician: Repairs and makes small modifications to existing structures.

Students seeking a 2-year ATA degree in Manufacturing Technology - Composites at Everett Community College, can combine the six core composites classes offered through Edmonds Community College with the Everett Community College CAD program. This Everett Community College program prepares students to be CAD technicians with solid grounding in composites.

Students who are seeking more of a research/hardware orientation, or students who are seeking to transfer to a four-year program should contact Gene Fusch at EdCC to develop the two-year transfer program to 4-year baccalaureate program. See faculty list at right for contact information.
