Automotive Service Technology Automotive Service Technology is a program offered under the Automotive Technology Department. Automotive Service Technology is the field of study dealing with diagnosis, service, and repair of automobiles and light trucks. Lab and classroom courses are oriented toward high levels of technical understanding, current developments such as electronic control systems and environmental issues, the development of the students' diagnostic capabilities, and proficiency with recommended service procedures. In addition to specific technical training, supporting courses provide for growth of interpersonal and other skills needed to advance within the automotive service industry. There are six tracks available under the Automotive Service Technology Associate of Applied Science degree. • Chrysler College Automotive Program (CAP) is a program with technical coverage specializing exclusively in current Chrysler products. • General Motors Automotive Service Educational Program (ASEP) is a program with technical coverage specializing exclusively in current General M oto r s p ro due ts. • Collision Repair is a program with an Inter-Industry Conference On Auto Collision Repair (I-CAR) based curriculum.
