Automotive Technology

The Automotive Technology program offers exciting careers and unlimited opportunities. Through the use of modern equipment and A.S.E. master certified instructors, students learn how to diagnose and repair the modern automobile. This is a “hands-on” training program that allows plenty of lab time to develop the skills needed to be a successful automotive technician.

Sample careers in this field: Automotive body repair technician, automotive service and sales manager, damage appraiser, first line supervisor, installer/repairer, insurance adjuster, mechanical engineer, motor sports, parts manager

Curriculum varies based on the degree (A.A.S., A.S., or Technical Certificate) and is subject to change. Curriculum posted are samples; Advisors can help determine sequence of classes.
