Course Descriptions
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.
