Show Technology — Automotive Engineering Technology Technology — Automotive Engineering Technology Department of Automotive Engineering Technology John A. Gaz, Chairman Associate Professor, John A. Gaz; Assistant Professors; Blaine M. Hartog, Bennion L. Tueller; Instructor-Specialist, Ralph A. Andersen. The Automotive Engineering Technology curriculum provides applied and theoretical sciences and practical skills to enable students to move into technical positions in automotive and related fields. Two options are offered: 1. The Automotive Engineering Technology option, composed of essential engineering, scientific and technical knowledge, prepares the student to perform in service research, product improvement, and general manufacturing. 2. Automotive Technology option, composed of basic automotive skills, technical knowledge, and management principles, prepares the student to perform in management positions in automotive fields or in related fields. Students completing any of the following programs may apply to enter Automotive Engineering Technology or Automotive Technology: Automotive Service, Automotive Technology (2 year), Diesel Technology and Diesel Service. Transfer students with training in comparable programs may apply for admission to Automotive Engineering or Automotive Technology.
