To appreciate the complexities of the automotive industry, students will learn various repair procedures to accommodate today’s computer-monitored, fuel-efficient, environmentally-friendly automobiles.  Specialized training will include the repair and maintenance of internal combustion engines, including ignition, cooling, fuel injection, fuel systems, computer diagnostics and electrical systems. 

Students enrolled in the Automotive Technology (AT) program enjoy the benefits of a fully comprehensive Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) certified program.  The course of study, facilities and program equipment have been evaluated by the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF) and meets the ASE standards of quality for the training of automobile technicians.
