Engineering & Manufacturing
Texas manufacturers create everything from aircraft components and energy systems to vehicles, medical products, and semiconductors.
Behind every product are skilled professionals who program machines, maintain automated equipment, fabricate components, and keep production moving. TSTC prepares students to work where engineering concepts become real products through precision and technology.
The future of the industry
TSTC's training meets this demand
Built with Employers
TSTC works directly with manufacturers to shape training around workforce needs. Programs like TXFAME go even further, combining classroom instruction with paid experience at partner companies so students apply their skills on the job.
Technology Meets Craft
Students learn by making, maintaining, and troubleshooting real systems. In Precision Machining, for example, students progress from reading technical drawings to programming CNC machines and producing parts with increasing independence.
Preparing for Advanced Manufacturing
TSTC is evolving its curriculum as manufacturing changes. Its new Advanced Manufacturing program brings automation and robotics into a broader technical foundation designed to prepare graduates for increasingly sophisticated production environments.
