Upon completion of the specific requirements of general education and the program shown here students may receive the Associate of Applied Science Degree. Certificates of skill proficiency will be issued for agreed upon achievement levels with the program. Students who wish to continue and complete a bachelor of science degree in Automotive Engineering Technology must make application with the department chairman to determine a suitable course of study. Usually more than two additional years are required to complete a bachelor of science degree from this two-year program because area requirements and related subjects have not been fully satisfied with this curriculum. Career Outlook: Job opportunities as mechanics and technical specialists are available at all job entry levels. Most graduates obtain positions as mechanics with major 250 Technology Automotive Service dealerships, truck lines, fleet operators or in small specialty repair and service shops.
