Programs of Instruction
operation of a general veterinary practice
exclusive of diagnosis, prescription, and surgery
and to pass examinations that may be required for
licensing in certain areas.
It is recommended that students in the Veterinary
Technology Program spend four semesters
of course work on campus followed by the
Veterinary Technology 2950 preceptorship off
campus. A plan is available to allow students
to complete on campus course work in a five
semester sequence if they so desire.
Students must complete all program
requirements, including approved electives, with
a "C" or better.

ASSOCIATE OF APPLIED SCIENCE
Welders are skilled crafts persons who like to
work with their hands. A welder can find work
almost anywhere from the smallest shop down
the street to the largest industrial complex in our
major cities. All hard goods manufactured make
extensive use of welding in building cars, trucks,
buses, trains, ships, aircraft, space vehicles, farm
implements, and jewelry.
A graduate welder is capable of welding ferrous
and nonferrous metals in all positions and can
operate shears, drills, and power tools. A welder
is competent in layout, cutting, and forming
metals and determining electrodes and filler
metal to be used. They must know how to work
from blueprints and written procedures and
know welding symbols. The welding program
at Eastern Wyoming College is centered in
the Mechanical Arts Building and is set up as
close to industry as is possible. Each student is
assigned a welding machine, table, and positioner.
Discussion of safety rules, regulations, and safe
use of equipment are included in the curriculum.
The objectives of the program are to enable the
student to meet entry-level requirements for
employment, build a basis for further study, and
