Roane State offers specialized composite materials courses as part of its Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree in General Technology.  The courses can also be taken by special enrolled students who already have degrees form Roane State and other institutions.  Composite materials, such as carbon fiber, are used to make automotive body parts, pontoon boats, wind turbine blades, and much more.

Qualified students can take three introductory composite materials courses at no cost.

  • Classes are available in the evenings.
  • Students learn about a new and growing industry. Material taught in Roane State’s      ACE program applies to sales positions, product development, start-up ventures and advanced manufacturing employment.
