Students majoring in Automotive Service and completing the required course of study as indicated in the catalog may graduate with a certificate of completion. The student who desires to continue and complete a bachelor of science degree in Automotive Engineering Technology must make application with the department chairman so an interview may be conducted to determine grade point average and a suitable course of study outlined. Additional time will be required to complete a bachelor of science degree from this two-year program because area requirements and related subjects have not been satisfied with this curriculum.
