Participating Schools:

Location:
NIACC Campus

The Tool & Die Technology Program at North Iowa Area Community College involves an in-depth study of high precision industrial dies and die components, progressive dies and plastic industry molds. The program is a continuation of the General Machinist diploma program.

A portion of the program is devoted to using computer-aided design (CAD) software to draw molds and dies, then using computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to generate computer-numeric controlled (CNC) machine language. Students operate CNC machine tools to produce many of their second-year projects.

Tool & Die Technology students study in NIACC's state-of-the-art Murphy Manufacturing Technology Center. Graduates of the program receive an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) Degree.
