Building upon the success of its Dry Welding programme, Kolej SPACE at UTMKL introduces the Underwater Welding course – a cutting-edge programme designed to equip students with the unique skills and expertise.
Underwater welding is a specialised form of welding that is performed in aquatic environments, typically in offshore oil rigs, shipyards, and underwater construction projects. This demanding field requires a combination of welding proficiency, diving skills, and technical knowledge to perform tasks safely and effectively in challenging underwater conditions.
The Underwater Welding course is tailored to provide students with comprehensive training in both welding techniques and diving procedures. Through a combination of classroom instruction, practical exercises, and hands-on simulations, participants gain a deep understanding of the principles and practices of underwater welding, as well as the safety protocols and equipment used in underwater operations.
From Sparks to Success
In today's rapidly evolving job market, the demand for individuals with practical skills and hands-on expertise is on the rise. Recognising the importance of equipping students with the tools they need to succeed in the workforce, Kolej SPACE at UTMKL offers a diverse range of skill development programmes. Among these, the Dry Welding skills programme, which carries the MQA Microcredential.
Dry welding, also known as non-consumable electrode welding, is a welding process that utilises a tungsten electrode to produce a weld without the need for a flux or filler material. This technique is commonly used in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and construction, where precision and reliability are paramount.
Students enrolled in the Dry Welding skills programme undergo comprehensive training and practical instruction. From mastering the fundamentals of welding techniques to honing their skills through hands-on practice, participants are equipped with the knowledge and confidence to excel in this specialised field.
