WyoTech Laramie

Campus Overview

 

Wyoming Technical Institute originated in a single 9,000 square foot building in 1966. WyoTech has maintained a policy of constantly upgrading facilities and courses to meet growing demands of the automotive, diesel and collision/refinishing industries.

With the addition of the new Diesel/Street Rod facility, the school is now comprised of over 298,000 square feet of modern shop, classroom and administrative facilities. The new Diesel/Street Rod facility alone covers 123,000 square feet, to house up-to-date facilities and equipment. The Applied Service Management facility provides a professional office-like setting in 24,000 square feet of space.

Throughout its history, WyoTech has kept its instructors abreast of the latest techniques, added new equipment as needed, and updated curriculum as changes occurred in the industry. "Moving into the Future" is not simply a slogan at Wyoming Technical Institute; it is a commitment.

Laramie, Wyoming is home to the University of Wyoming as well as WyoTech, making it an ideal college community. This small town is a haven for the outdoor enthusiast, with biking, hiking, camping, fishing, four-wheeling, hunting, skiing, and more!

Summer Seminars

This summer, WyoTech's Laramie campus is conducting instructor seminars in:

  • TIG Welding

This course will cover theory and application of TIG welding as it applies to the Chassis Fabrication industry. The course will start with a lecture covering theory, equipment, controls, settings and minor maintenance of the TIG welding equipment. A discussion covering the importance of proper metal preparation and fit will also take place. Students will use shop time specifically for performing TIG welds on materials supplied by WyoTech. Students will weld on .120” thick mild steel. WyoTech will supply all tools, materials and personal protective equipment required for this course. The course time will be split between approximately 1/3 lecture time and 2/3 lab time.

  • Introduction to Sheet Metal Fabrication

This course is a condensed version of WyoTech’s Street Rod and Custom Fabrication training. Areas covered will be basic panel restoration, use of lead-free body solder, metallurgy and metal identification, simple bends and curves, body modifications (basic and advanced) and advanced metal shaping. Hands on learning will be tailored to the student’s skill level, using sheet metal projects that have been developed by the Street Rod staff. Materials for these projects will be supplied. For students that are ready for an advanced challenge, personal projects may be brought in. Please consult with the course coordinator for input on any personal project. Students of this course in the past have fabricated some outstanding projects as well as performed some serious body modifications!

Seminars will be held July 11-14, 2011.  Participating instructors may take only one seminar during this session. The cost is just $50.00 (non-refundable).
