ToolingTooling:

   The plastics engineering technology program exposes the students to a wide variety of tooling from the many plastic disciplines. This includes injection molds, thermoforming molds, blow molding molds, and extrusion dies. This exposure provides the students with a keen understanding of the function, construction, and multi-component interactions involved in well-constructed plastics tooling. The tooling piece of the puzzle provides the foundation for a successful career in part design, mold design, processing, or any other plastics field.
