It provides an introduction toautomotive careers and increases student awarenessof the challenges associated with this fast andever-changing field.Classroom and lab experiences integrate technicaland academic course work. Emphasis is placed ontheory, servicing, and operation of brakes, electrical/electronicsystems, engine performance, steering,suspension, engine repair, climate control, andmanual drive-trains.Upon completion of this curriculum, students shouldbe prepared to take the ASE exam, and be readyfor full-time employment in dealerships and repairshops in the automotive service industry.Most courses taken in this diploma program maybe applied toward the Associate of Applied Sciencedegree in Automotive Systems Technology.ADMISSION INFORMATION:VALID DRIVER’S LICENSE REQUIREDProgram Learning Outcomes:1.
