The University of Montana College Of Technology Launches Two New Programs

In response to the demand for additional education and training opportunities following recent layoffs in western Montana, The University of Montana College of Technology is opening two additional industrial trade programs beginning fall semester 2010.

The carpentry program will accept 20 students for an Associate of Applied Science degree program. The welding technology program will accept 20 students for a similar degree program. Classes for both will begin fall semester 2010 and continue through spring semester 2011, summer term 2011 and fall semester 2011.

Students will take late afternoon, evening and some weekend courses in the fall and spring semesters. Summer term courses will be held during daytime hours. Students admitted to either program will take general education courses in the fall term (e.g. math and writing) and will begin their skilled-trades courses during spring semester 2011.

The carpentry and welding technology programs will accept students on a first-come, first-served basis. For more information or to apply, call Enrollment Services–Admissions at the UM College of Technology at 406-243-7882 or e-mail [email protected] .
