Program Details

Mechanical Design
https://www.cvtc.edu/academics/programs
Chippewa Valley Technical College
Any machine - from tractors to aerospace equipment - must be designed before it can be produced. The Mechanical Design program prepares students with skills to design and draw machines using modern engineering practices. Mechanical designers create drawings that give producers a clear picture of the product or component to be produced. The student will construct two-dimensional working drawings and three-dimensional part models on a microcomputer using CAD software. Quality, design, manufacturing, and product reliability are stressed in this program as is creativity, problem-solving ability, and team work. Show More

PLEASE NOTE:

If there are fewer than eight enrollments in the training program, only the "Enrollments" number will be displayed; all other data is hidden in order to help protect the students' identities. The "Employment Outcomes" are calculated using information from Wisconsin's Unemployment Insurance Wage database. Most employers are required to report certain employment information to the State of Wisconsin, including quarterly wage information for their employees. Students whose information could not be verified in this database are excluded from these outcomes. If a "0" shows for any of these outcomes, it means that none of the students' information could be verified.

MAKING SENSE OF THE EMPLOYMENT OUTCOMES:

"Average quarterly wages" means the total wages earned in a three-month period by all students who completed the program ("completers"), divided by the total number of completers.

"Median quarterly wages" means all the completers' quarterly wages are placed in order from lowest to highest and then we identify the student's wages in the middle. This information is provided because averages can be greatly influenced by really high and low wage earners.

To estimate monthly wages, divide the quarterly wages by three.
