Automotive Technology, Associate in Applied<br />
Science (AUTO)<br />
The Associate in Applied Science degree program will prepare students for<br />
immediate career opportunities. The program is designed to provide the broad<br />
academic, technical education that is necessary to function in today's automotive<br />
service industry. This program includes fundamental, basic, intermediate and<br />
advanced theories for testing, diagnosing malfunctions, evaluating and repairing<br />
automotive systems and components. Students will learn to apply new skills in<br />
specialized service work, business management, communications, decisionmaking,<br />
and social work habits. Career opportunities are unlimited within the<br />
automotive industry. Employment classification includes but is not limited to,<br />
automotive technicians, skilled in many areas and/or specializing in one or<br />
more areas of diagnosis and repair. Other possible career paths include shop<br />
supervisor, service manager, parts managers, service writers, service<br />
dispatcher, auto sales person, automotive instructors, automotive company<br />
instructors, and parts line instructors.<br />
With today's increase of electronic components used on the automobile and<br />
the projected increase of electronics in the years to come, it is imperative that<br />
entering students have a background in electricity, mathematics, business skills,<br />
computer science and an understanding of the English language, both in<br />
reading and writing.<br />

• Apply various automotive theories for, testing, diagnosing malfunctions,<br />
evaluating, and repairing automotive systems and components.<br />
• Demonstrate proficiency in the use of basic and specialized tools.<br />
• Interpret electronic and written service manuals, flat rate manuals, and<br />
technical service bulletins.<br />
• Demonstrate proficiency in the use of electronic diagnostic equipment.<br />
• Obtain the Pennsylvania Emission and Safety Inspector Certifications.<br />
• Achieve employment as 2nd to 1st class automotive technician.<br />
• Utilize shop tools, personal hand tools, and power tools.<br />
• Identify and explain the starting system, its design, components,<br />
control circuits.<br />
• Perform starting system testing.<br />
• Inspect air induction system, exhaust system components, turbochargers<br />
and superchargers.<br />
• Diagnose, service and repair anti-lock brake systems and automated<br />
traction control.<br />
• Repair frames, suspension system components, McPherson's Strut<br />
Systems, and independent suspension systems.<br />
• Perform front suspension inspection, service, and component repairs.<br />
• Analyze fuel injection system defects<br />
• Determine the extent of repair and/or adjustments for correction of the fuel<br />
injection defects.<br />
• Troubleshoot and repair the charging system.<br />
• Diagnose, service, disassemble, measure and repair, the<br />
