Automotive Technology: AAS
The AAS degree of Automotive Technology is a comprehensive degree that combines automotive training with general education courses that will prepare students for employment in the automotive service and repair industry. Students are trained in the eight Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) areas of specialization. Instruction for each of the ASE areas is supported through instructor-led presentations, demonstrations, and reinforced with guided hands-on lab activities. Students will also be administered a student-specific ASE test at the end of the program to prepare them for future ASE tests.
