OSU-Okmulgee's watchmaking program offers intense, thorough training in this challenging and exacting art. Students develop the hand skills necessary for making and maintaining tools, servicing and repairing fine timepieces, and manufacturing watch parts. Critical thinking and problem solving abilities are strengthened so the mind becomes as much of a part of the solution as the tools in the watchmaker's hand. These traditional skills, coupled with equipment utilizing the latest technology, allow our graduates to work to a higher technological standard than ever before.

OSU-Okmulgee utilizes the AWCI (American Watch and Clock Institute) course of study, designed specifically to develop the type of skilled craftsman needed to service high-grade watches. Our industry-driven integrated associate degree program ensures that our graduates are well-rounded, professional watchmakers. Career opportunities are numerous, both in the United States and abroad, with employment available in watch brand service centers, independent service centers, and jewelry stores being just a few of the many available options.

If you are mechanically inclined and welcome challenges and opportunities for personal growth, Watchmaking may be right for you.
