Welding is a part of fabrication, the process of taking raw metals and joining them into products. It involves design, cutting, bending, shaping, and assembling, with hands-on labor, welding tools and skills, and science and math.

Without math, any welding project compromises its integrity and could have dire consequences. If the math is wrong, a bridge might collapse, a pipeline might leak, or a rocket might fail. Math is the backbone of what welding engineering is all about.

But in the world of welding engineering, welding is much more than just melting two pieces of metal together. Whether you’re interested in the precision of high-powered lasers, the strength of underwater arcs, or using controlled explosions to bond materials, there is a specialized process for every challenge.

You might imagine someone building a bridge, fixing pipes, or working in a shop. The truth? A traditional welding job focuses on operating welding equipment, following a plan, and working with a team. Behind every good welding team is a good business plan.
